It-ROI-180-l Pvt-tzdrvll, 1894-190-I TO THE STUDENTS: ln times of adversity the American people have always demonstrated conclusively their initiative and their ability to rise to the occasion no matter what it may be and no matter what the odds. This traditional capacity for action in an emergency will serve the country in good stead during the course of the terrible confiict now being waged against us by the foes of freedom and Democracy. lt seems to me that one of the greatest contribu- tions of the University of Illinois to the times in which we live is in teaching its students to be self- reliant, resourceful and strong, to think things out clearly and act, under enlightened and progressive leadership, on the dictates of their own best judg- INCINT. During the last seventy-five years the University of Illinois has devoted itself to that objective. And during the years to come-diflicult though they may be-diflicult though they undoubtedly will be - the University will continue to exemplify the principles of the American way of life - a life of freedom and Democracy under the law. ln that way, as much as in any other, can the University as a great educational institution fulfill its obliga- tions to the people of the State and Nation.
