III! W. HIMIII III! (OCIIIHII! III! IIINIII flE IIINIII m Illl A IIINIII PRESIDENT RUTHVEN President Ruthven, upon his appoint- ment to office in 1929 outlined several major administrative problems the solu- tion of which was necessary if the Uni- versity was to become useful to the State. One of these problems was the corre- lation of the public service activities and extra-mural education of the University. The creation of the department of Uni- versity Relations to evaluate the increas- ing opportunities for service completes the last phase of President Ruthven ' s administrative reorganisation policy. BRUCE MADE VICE-PRESIDENT Dr. James D. Bruce, former director of the department of post-graduate medi- cine and member of the executive com- mittee of the Medical school has been appointed Vice-President in Charge of the Department of University Relations a position which gives the university three vice-presidents.

III! W. IIIMIII Illl CIIIHIII III! (OG IIINIII (HE IIINIII 1IIN1II to make more definite the entire field of extra- mural education, that the Department of Univer- sity Relations has been created. The work of this department is expected to meet the increasing demands of residents throughout the State for additional guidance and assistance in education. More and more each year, Dr. Ruthven has stated, society is coming to realize the value of the University. Parents who are outstripped in- tellectually by their children no longer believe that it is too late to become students. This is revealed in the demands made by matured per- sons; and the function of adult education, the fostering of extra mural and intramural activities, in the dissipation of this idea and the retrieving of abilities which secondary schools fail to de- velop. Because of this trend it has been found neces- sary to bring the services of the University into closer and more coherent relationship with vari- ous professions, welfare organizations, and agencies. President Ruthven has voiced his belief that the University is capable of promoting and fostering all intramural interests and activities which contribute to the making of a great uni- versity and still be continuously useful to the state and country at large by employing its facilities toward the solution of many problems which have an immediate and practical bearing on public welfare. He has declared that the people have a right to look to the state university in par- ticular not only for leadership in education of youth, but also for the solution of practical problems and the education of adults. If the citizens of the State are coming to appreciate education as a continuing process, we should welcome opportunities to serve them. In an address before the University Press Club on November 19 President Ruthven dis- cussed in detail the widening scope of the Uni- versity ' s activities and stated that the University as an institution is rapidly becoming the brain of society and as such should never fail in adjust- ing and directing the activities of society through any conception of its sphere of usefulness. The modern university cannot become in- tellectually exclusive. It serves the whole body and throughout life should guide it, not selfishly, nor for the good of any part at the expense of REGENT JUNIUS E. SEAL REGENT W. L. CLEMENTS REGENT JAMES O.
