Officers of Administration The efficient performance of the administration of the University is directed from South building, where the administrative offices are found.

A gentleman active- ly interested in maintaining students ' rights and in conducting a University based on the tenets of freedom, tolerance, and scholarship. THOMAS J.

Gruman, Director By means of correspondence instruction, extension classes located in all parts of the State, radio lectures, extension library service, read- ing courses, community dramatics, inter-scholastic activities, and a variety of publications, ' the University of North Carolina, through the Extension Division, is relating itself closely with the life of North Carolina. The University campus is now virtually coterminous with the boundaries of the commonwealth. The director of the Extension division of the University is a graduate of Springfield College, where he received the degree of Bachelor of Humanics. The purpose of this division is best expressed in the words of President Graham ' s inaugural speech. The excerpt follows: It is the function of the state university not only to find its bits of truth and teach the truth gathered from . scholars everywhere, but to carry the truth to the people that they may take it into their lives and help to make it prevail in the world of affairs. It is the ideal of the University Extension Division to make the re- sources of the universities, the discoveries of science, and the findings of social scientists available for the people of the commonwealth.
