Page 23 University of Arkansas N ITS teaching function a university has two principal objects: First. the training of a large body of young men and women to take their places in the professions and in the other walks of life, and to be, withal, citizens of a high typeg and, second, to train a much smaller number of persons who have the will and the ability to become true scientists and discoverers of new knowledge in all the different fields of learning. Like all of the smaller universities, the University of Arkansas, while not neglecting the latter of those two purposes, has devoted the larger portion of its efforts to the former. How well the University has succeeded in its aims may be dis- covered by a glance at the long list of distinguished alumni who have served and are still serving this state in the most important public positions, in teaching and the other professions, in business, and in industry. With theiadoption of a building plan and the completion of the first two units of this plan in the spring of 1927, the University enters upon a new period in its history. An over-ambitious pro- gram, however, should not lead us into distributing our efforts over so wide a field as to injure the quality of the educational work in those portions of the field in which the state finds the greatest need for service from the University. For a state university, which is the outgrowth of the hopes and desires of the people of the state, owes it to its constituency to look first to the needs of its own people. It should, therefore, be our aim to improve the institution that we have, strengthening here, modifying there, until we have an institution which, while not one of the largest, will be conceded to be equal to the best in the quality of its output. -JOHN C. FUTRALL
