Communication Lines- A Must for Success Pause a moment. Ask a question. What is the major reason for the existence of Union University? Is this existence for the student? Or does the student exist for the institution? In recent months a basic struggle between stu- dents and administration has occurred on most every hberal campus in the country. And on every campus the conflict centers around the question of existence. Uni on Uni ersity has not been without conflict, nor will conflict be absent in the future. However, a concerted effort on part of the administration, the faculty, and the student to maintain open lines of communication between the three will insure a pro- per answer to this question of existence. The key to success lies in one ' s al:)ilitv to com- municate with one ' s fellow man.
