Growth is the most necessary and inevitable of all the life processes. Indeed, it is the very evidence of life. Man must have a sense of motion and development, for it is in progressive activity that he finds meaningfulness. Mutation is largely an internal and personal procedure, but it is immediately reflected in the changes projected upon the external world. Every physical object exists first in man's mind: the building is a dream before it is blueprints, and blueprints before it is brick, steel, and glass. The erection of a new building may mean the destruction of an old one. Earth which has lain undisturbed for years is suddenly torn up, and the passer-by shakes his head at the sight of the huge raw cavity that is left behind. Foundations are laid; they are flat, prosaic, and undeniably functional. Upon them a superstructure is erected which stands against the sky like a gangling and clumsy adolescent. The passer-by stops now and smiles in admiration as the building grows. The walls go up, the roof goes on, and the windows are set. Plaster and paint shape the inside, while shrubbery and grass complete the appearance of the grounds. The building is ready for use. An idea has become tangible. It will remain valuable only until a new idea is born somewhere in a man's mind. The University of Illinois has initiated an unprecedented program of intensive expansion in recent years. Today, plans which were dreams when the class of 1962 came to Champaign-Urbana are realities, and every day dreams are being put down on paper. The University has constructed, cast aside, and modified many dreams in those four years — just as its students have reshaped their old values and created new ideas — in quest of a meaningful progress. The 1962 lllio has attempted to capture the nature of this dual activity as it is reflected in the physical growth of the University and the inner growth of the individual. It is to thoso many individuals that this book is given. It is given in trust — a trust that they will never stop growing.
