The President ' ftteJJage The session 1946-47 has been outstanding in a number of ways. The enrollment for the academic year totaled more than 1,800. Eight hundred of these were veterans. The new Stetson Hall has been com- pleted and now houses 168 young women. The College of Law re- opened in September with an excellent faculty and 64 students. The Campus Soda Shop was opened November 15. The greatest Home- coming in the history of the Institution was held on November 16. More than 2,000 alumni returned to the campus. Intercollegiate athletics were resumed. The Million Dollar Campaign made marked progress. More than $300,000 in cash has been received and in ad- dition more than $300,000 has been pledged. Students and faculty are giving their best to making Stetson finer in scholarship, finer in culture, and finer in the development of Christian character. Thus Stetson continues to go forward. I am happy to extend greetings and best wishes to the Stetson family everywhere. Sincerely, William Sims Allen, President
