Senator Hubert Humphrey Lewis Mumford Governor Edmund G. Brown spoke at of the University meetings in the spring. The crowd was so large that the Pauley Ballroom was overflowed and had to listen from other parts of the Student Union. About 7000 students listened to and all of Dwinelle Plaza was filled when Mumford spoke. The University meetings give the student a chance to have a break from his classes and to listen to an excellent speaker provided by the University. The large turnout at these meetings is indicative of the student interest in current affairs.

University Meetings The first University meeting, an annual welcoming affair, featured Lewis Mumford, author and lecturer, as the principle speaker. The Cal Band played and the Glee Club sang. Mumford spoke on The Human Way Out and called upon everyone to readopt moral dropped three years before the atom bomb. The weight of this sad time we must obey. The time has come to speak. What we feel is precisely what we ought to say. We have no committment to catastrophe. At the University meeting in December, Hubert Humphrey, Democratic Senator from Minnesota and chairman of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, was the principle speaker. In his speech he called upon Americans to work toward a progressive social and economic program of aid to underdeveloped areas instead of all their time denouncing Communism.
