university meetings Yuletide Weft lined the ea as the Star of Bethlehem thche owe the mod in the gen% Gym. The University family of students and faculty again gathered throughout the year to share in the knowledge and pleasure of others. Benjamin Ide Wheeler, once beloved Presi- dent of the University, provided humor and wisdom for the throng through excerpts of his speeches read by Fred Simson on the 100th anniversary of Wheeler ' s birth. Midway in the semester the campuses of the University massed together in the Greek Theater to greet each other during All-U Weekend and the traditional Christmas meeting was inspir- ing for those assembled in the Men ' s Gym as they joined in the festive yuletide sing. With the spring about at a close the students ioined together to honor the Oxford-Cambridge rugby team in a show of international flavor —the true University spirit. Bringing the year to an end the Seniors stepped into the lime- light as they delivered their farewell to the campus and their undergraduate days.

charter day March 23, 1955, marked the eighty-seventh anniversary of the granting of the charter of the University of California at 2:30 p.m. on this day. A gathering of students, faculty, and special guests witnessed this birthday celebration of the University. Guest speaker for this occasion was Harold W. Dodds, pres- ident of Princeton University, whose address on What Makes A University? highlighted the ceremonies. Honorary doctor of laws de- grees were conferred on Dodds and also Dr. Herbert M. Evans of the University. The pro- ceedings of the day struck a significant note for those present at this inspiring ceremony. Colorful, yet somber; impressive, yet per- sonal; the occasion symbolized the past, present, and future of our University, of which everyone, both students and faculty, have and will play a part.
