It has furnished to Alabama its leaders both in peace and in war. It is a treasure house of established facts and fundamen- kdxf Wil tal principles, a place organized for new truth, a steadying force of civiliza- M C fi tion, and a stabilizing factor in sane progress. Its al'umni have been, in practically every community, the leaders in industry, in society, and in the professions. It has produced outstanding men both in Church and State. It is the dynamo from which has been generated the power that has, more than any other factor. determined our destiny. ill No institution can present a finer record of service. No insti- tution has grasped its opportunities with greater zeal. No institution is giving back to the commonwealth that established and is maintaining it, a richer return. No institution is fulfilling its destiny with a keener realization of its duty. QU If we may forecast the future in the light of the past, we may be permitted to prophesy even greater things for the University of our faith and loyalty. We look forward to the day when our beloved Alabama will be still more widely acclaimed for the service she has rendered and will continue to render in the high task to which her life is devoted.

For the first forty years of the University's life this college was the University. It is the original central organization, around which have been grouped during the past lifty years the other schools and colleges that help to make up the University as it exists today. ill The aim and purpose of this college is. as it has always been, to prepare young men and young women for life in its broadest sense: to give them such fundamental training of mind and heart and spirit as will enable them to become centers of influence for good through- out the state and the nation. The other schools and colleges of the University have as their primary purpose the making of lawyers. doctors, teachers, engineers, business men. The College of Arts and Sciences strives to give to its students a broad general culture. to make them intelligent, liberal-minded. public-spirited citizens. lll'This college has of late years been limiting the range of a student's electives. The result is that an A.B. graduate Of today has not only acquired some familiarity with half a dozen of the main branches of knowledge, but has also attained a considerable mastery of one of these branches. He has by this means made some advance towards that long since unattainable ideal of edu- cation: to know something about everything, and everything about something.
