GENERAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Fkmx Harkvev, President Deceased Kinston K. P. Lf.vvis, 00 W. D. Carmichaei,. Jr., ' 21 J. Marvcjn Saimieus, 25 PresiJeiit Viec-Fresident Exeeutive Secretary Durham New York City Chapel Hill ORGANIZED in 1843 the General Alumni Association in ' ites participation by every former student of the University of North Caro- lina in a program of alumni service that is now nearly a century in age. For the three fold purpose of perpetuating as- sociations formed in collegiate years, promoting the welfare of Alma Mater, and promoting the cause of education generally, the Alumni Associa- tion was created. And since that time has striven to follow as guiding principles the motives which actuated its organization. The record of the alumni of the University is a historj ' of the institution ' s contribution to the life of the State and Na- tion was created. And since that human endeavor the Universit - has sent forth her sons and — more recently — her daughters. The achievements these have made have brought added pres- tige to the University, even as association with the University has brought prestige to the in- dividual alumnus. As a unifying force for Uni- versity welfare the Alumni Association calls upon alumni to express through it their loyalty for Alma Mater. Working in co- operation with the University administration the Association seeks to coordinate the alumni in- terest in bringing to focus public and private support in the building of a greater Univer- sity. With its high purposes yet there comes to the individual alunmus associated by membership in the General Alumni Associ- ation the recompensing pleas- ures of renewing University friendships in local alumni meetings, class reunions, home- comings and other alumni assemblages. Through its pub- lication, The Ahiinni Reviciv, the Association offers a means whereby an alumnus ma ' more easily keep informed about alumni and University aft ' airs. And through its Central . lumni Office in Chapel Hill the Association constantly avails itself of opportunities of alumni service and pres- ervation and perpetuation of University traditions. — J.
