Xtttroduction HFTER weeks of trial and tribulation, amid the busy round of numerous Class duties, the Board of Editors introduce to you the eighth volume of THE HELLENIAN. Not many new lines have been undertaken this year, but an effort has been made to enlarge upon and improve those features which have hitherto been deemed suf cient for the Annual. To those who have shown such a kindly interest in the work we tender our sincerest thanks. Especially is it a pleasure to acknowledge our indebtedness and gratitude to Col. Benehan Cameron for the very substantial aid and encouragement he has given. What- ever of a success our book may be is due in no small measure to his generosity. With a due appreciation for contributions received from other of our friends, and with the hope that the Ninety-seven HEIvLENIAN may prove a pleasant memento of our college life, we are. Respectfully, THE EDITORS. 10

H Hvicf Review. THE University of North Carolina and the State of North CaroHna were born ' n the same year — 1789. During these one hundred and eight years the University has been the mightiest piece of social machinery within the borders of the State. It reached its ante-bellum climax in 1856 with 461 students. It has reached its climax of genuine usefulness and power in 1897 with 400 students and the largest teaching force and the fullest equipment in its history. The University is non-sectarian in religion, non-partisan in politics, and as impartial as justice in social relations. It cherishes the fair ideal of investi- gation and discovery, but it places humanity above truth and seeks above all things to awaken all the people to the beauty of truth and the effectiveness of knowledge. The University rests upon the rock of public favor, public necessity and christian democracy, and it shall endure forever ! The spirit that pervades its life today is equality, opportunity, manliness, and self-help. In the following imperfect resume one may see the evidences of its wonderful expansion in the last six years : — 1. Increase in numbers of one hundred per cent. 2. Remodeling of its campus and buildings. 3. Extension of the elective system. 4. Establishment of the Chair of History. 5. Establishment of the Chair of Pedagogy. 6. Establishment of the Department of Pharmacy. 7. Extension of the Medical Course. 8. Establishment and growth of the Summer School. 9. Establishment of the Chair of Biology as a separate department. 10. Erection of Commons Hall. 11. Admission of women to post-graduate work. 12. Final consolidation of its libraries. 13. Establishment of electric light plant. 14. Establishment of the University Press. 15. Increase of teaching force. 16. Increase of appropriation. 11
