Her growth during the past few years has been noticeable. Her spirit is yet the same. The plans are drawn for a great future, with new buildings looming up ahead of her, and great numbers of students on the way. A great and mighty constituency is backing a far-seeing, heroic leader. A devoted and capable faculty and a splendid, loyal student body are working together. Surely we are favored in having Indiana Central for our college. There are glorious days ahead. Indiana Central College was incorporated under the name Indiana Central Uni- versity, October 6, 1902, and opened its doors to students on September 26, 1905. The three United Brethren Conferences in Indiana founded the institution for the purpose of making their contribution to higher Christian education, and of encouraging their sons and daughters to secure a higher learning under the most wholesome and helpful conditions. The college is controlled by a board of trustees which represent the Conferences of the constituency. The number of students has increased enormously. Pledges during special cam- paigns have far exceeded our expectations. A gymnasium and two dormitories have been built within the past two years, and another dormitory is now under construction. A fifty-acre tract of land has been added to the campus, the equipment has been in- creased, and the faculty has been strengthened. The literary societies, Christian associations, debating teams, musical organizations, the Volunteer Band, and athletics have contributed much toward keeping the college spirit beautiful and helpful. .
