Some people, it is said, have been frightened by the Archaeology Museum, and even more by the Journalism School, but Michigan is proud of its homeliness. It has re- acted to the times and it has scars. There is 1840 Georgian, 1880 Victorian, 1900 Gothic-revival, 1920 Modern, 1940 Functional and a little bit here and there from the school of Nausea. The University, it is true, did not think of the tourist trade when it began to expand; its archi- tecture, as well as its attitude, has been contempo- rary. In the same vein, the Uni- versity has not felt it necessary to keep within the city limits of Ann Arbor. It has and these are only two of many an Observatory in South Africa (above) and a field station for the Center of Japanese studies in Koayama, Japan. Michigan, then, is more or less an interna- tional affair; it has ties in every conceiv- able part of the globe (from expeditions to the Near East to libraries in Manila). Perhaps it is extreme, but it is pleasant to have said that there are three import- ant things for the rest of the world to know about America (a foreign student, not from Michigan, said it): Harvard, Michigan, and prosperity. 1 1

THE REAL BOSS IS TIME No one can justly accuse Michigan of being strictly utilitarian in its tastes after he has seen Burton Memorial Tower or heard its daily carillon concert, or if he has ever been to one of the frequent lectures or recitals in the main auditorium of the Rackham Building. Here he has experienced the almost magical sensation of being in a university heaven. There is little to be said about Hill Auditorium (below, right), except perhaps that it is magnificent and elegant and magnificently elegant, and that it has housed everything and everyone from Nat King Cole to Piatagorsky. And these are only three of the places that the Michigan student comes to know. There are many others no one seems to know how many- each devoted to giving Michigan an incalculable kind of wealth. 13
