LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT To seniors and graduate students receiving degrees, I extend warm congratulations and good wishes. The year 1965 will be one you will remember always. You will refer to it frequently as long as you live. When you give the dates of your degrees on personnel forms, if you run for public office, if you are invited to submit biographical data to Who ' s Who, you will have occasion to refer again and again to 1965. This yearbook will be your life-long reminder of what 1965 symbolized for you. When you turn its pages, your friends, your activities and achieve- ments, your favorite professors and your intellectual adventures will crowd your mind with fond memories. Let 1965 also be the key to your realization and acceptance of the fact that the task of learning is never finished. The most important thing you have gained from your education at the University of Arizona is that you have begun to learn how to go about learning. Let 1965 be the year of your renewed dedication to the continuing and essential process of self education and self discipline. The University of Arizona is proud of you, and you can be proud of your Alma Mater. The accomplishments of our graduates and faculty have earned the University a deserved reputation as one of America ' s dis- tinguished educational institutions. I am confident your careers and your future achievements will continue to enhance this reputation. Dr. Richard A Harvill The construction of new buildings exemplifies the Univer- sity ' s growth under Dr. Harvill ' s leadership. 21
