President Norlln ' It stirs in me an emotion, which I cannot define even to myself, to have it brought home to me that this is my last appearance in the University of Colo- rado year book. I do not in the least resent the coming separation, v hich is, I know, to the best in- terest of the University and of myself. Yet I have for so long a time — forty-one years to be precise — gone to and fro on this campus in the active service of the University that even now I begin to have a lost feeling when I have time to think that this ser- vice is so soon to end. It might almost be said that I have grown up with the University. When I came here, students could not express their sacred personalities by tramping down the grass, for there were no lawns. Nor were there paved walks for them to spurn. Of buildings, there were few. Some, like Old Main, still stand, though not too firmly. Other structures have served their time and been retired. All the students were comfortably contained on the ground f ' oor of the CSiapel, now the Little Theater, in Old Main, and all the professors could find room to sit with dignity on the platform of the Chapel. Those were the days of small things, but despise them not. They were the days of hopefulness and adventure and the glory of the unfinished. I cher- ish the University of two score years ago quite as much as I have pride in the greater University of today. Roughly, my years here have been about evenly divided between teaching and administration. The teaching days were the best days, for then I was associated daily with students. Since then, my ex- ecutive duties have been so pressing that I have had little direct contact with the students, and this has been painful to me. During my twenty years as President, I have had, of course, my satisfactions, but the greatest satisfac- tion that I have had is the unbroken loyalty of the students and the whole University population. This has sustained me and helped me over many a rough place, and I am most grateful for it. GEORGE NORLIN. Page 16

Executive Courted Once a month the Executive Council, the executive committee of the University Sen- ate, meets to deal with student discipline and attendance, or to formulate temporary- regulations for the University. This Coun- cil is responsible to the University Senate and reports to it regularly. The Deans of each school or college are members of the Executive Council, in addition to four mem- bers elected from the Senate. Although the Council has no power to enact permanent legislation, it may enforce temporary regu- lations, which are referred to the Senate immediately after their proposal.
