Since the time of Coronado in 1540, pioneers and settlers have striven to make the area, which ever since 1912, has been known as the State of New Mexico, a better place in which to live. Its cities have grown and flourished under a bright sun, the symbol of which is said to have been scratched in the earth by a mortally wounded pioneer, and which symbol has been adopted as the state emblem. Its sons have just returned from the second world in- volving war— the possessors of greater world and worldly knowledge. Some paid with their lives and will never return. The rest, unharmed and safe, are once again hard at work in its schools to try to make up for such a costly interruption that a world war can be. The University of New Mexico is proud to be one of those schools.
