University Is.. I: ' ' »:. . ' ■ ' the School The school stands as a symbol of education and as the builder of edu- cated citizens. Through the years it has been looked upon in owe and in dis- trust, but we look today in admiration and hope. The school is more than buildings; it is the home, the parent of the mind.

AND THE STATE From the Sandhills to the river bottoms, from the vast plains of the west to the bustling cities of the east, come Nebraskans to our University. The University, the melting pot of Nebraska, borrows the talent and ambition of the future citizens of the State to mold and perfect. In four years it returns unlimited interest on this loan — interest in the form of knowledge and understanding from social and intellectual growth. Through this close connection with the University, the State gains enlightened citizens. We as students are proud of our University, proud of contributions of progress it makes to our State. To the University the State sends its youth; to the youth the University gives knowledge; and bearing this knowledge proud- ly, the youth return to the State. To the University and to the State with hopes of increased understanding and cooperation, we dedi- cate the 1957 Cornhusker.

The quiet delight of sudden understanding, the tension before an exam, and the relief when studies are finished are feelings experienced by each student as he works toward his pri- mary goal of intellectual development. s
