THF. most pressing need of the University is the same pressing need of every university—ample funds. If I were asked to name the four buildings so badly needed at once, I would unhesitatingly answer: a modern library, a physics building, a magnificent chapel large enough to scat the student body and an equal number of visitors, and an administration building. That we shall have at no distant day a modern library building and a physics building is imperative. This year the University has raised the entrance requirements, the graduation requirements, and has established an Honors Day—all looking to higher scholastic attainment. Nothing, however, has such a profound inllucncc on scholarship as the prosecution of research work. We should develop our graduate work without further delay. It is also my great desire to see the citizens of the state look more and more to the University for help in solving practical problems. If our citizens would ask for this information, problems of all kinds would be studied more and more thoroughly, teaching would be greatly stimulated, and the career of a college professor would be more attractive. The University was established to render service to all the people. It has done much in the past; it stands ready to do more in the future. Ask and it shall be given. Since the Commerce-Journalism building has such excellent housing facilities, it is my desire to sec the Henry V. Grady School of Journalism collect a large file of southern newspapers. To carry on research work, more and more students must have access to newspapers. Here is an opportunity and what alumnus will furnish the money to make this suggestion possible? The essential characteristics of a university arc the advancement, the conservation, and the dissemination of knowledge. A university pres; is, therefore, as fundamental and as essential, as a library or provision for research. The function of a university press is to publish in dignified and stately form those important contributions to knowledge which, for one reason or another, fail to command a sale that would justify the publication in the case of ordinary trade. Here again is a great opportunity and what alumnus will give the necessary funds with which to conduct a university press? No state university can exist on state support alone. Certain projects must rest with loyal friends for support. Finally may our alumni and friends continue as faithful and loyal in the future as they have in the past. As a testimonial of their loyalty and faith in the University of Georgia stand Memorial Hall, the Commerce-Journalism Building, the new Law Building under process of construction, and in a large measure the Stadium. Those who have been active and who have contributed of their means seem to say with true reverence: We shall perish, but thou shalt endure. We shall wax-old as a garment, and as a vesture shall we be changed. But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.” Dean S. V. Sanford. r»c« 27 Dr. S. V. Sanford, Dean of the I'niversily.
