U NIVERSITY DF Robert B. House Dean of Administration The Class of 1937 will remember their college years as a period of major importance, new align- ments and new adjustments within the nation and between the nations of the world. The stress and strain of this period have reflected themselves in the structure of college education itself. This class has achieved its maturity at a time when the University has been working out new policies, new organization, and, it is hoped, a new spirit in its educational work. Faculty and students have agreed and disagreed about the course of study, examinations, required attendance, honors courses, individual programs, but they have stuck together in working out what we hope to be improvements. Never before have students in the University enjoyed a more direct contact with and influence on the very nature of the University itself. They have organized new types of discussion groups, they have used their publications and their committees more directly as sources of advice and guidance to the faculty, and they have participated more thoroughly in faculty deliberations. Major problems of consolidation and adjustment of University education within the framework of the State have concerned the University during this generation of students. A direct challenge to stu- dent honor and student self-government has been met by the students. The right of students and faculty to participate in major political issues of the day and to study freely and to interpret fearlessly various political, social, and economic points of view have been challenged during this generation as never before in the history of the University. The major problem of amateur athletics presented a challenge to the sportsmanship and integrity of the institution. As a result, the University understands itself and its work better, whether looked at from the point of view of faculty and administration, students, alumni, friends, or the general citizenship of the State itself. The University has seemed to attach itself to the manifold life of the State more thoroughly and more variously than ever before. As a result, it is more alive, more courageous, and more abreast of its essential problems than ever before. It has been a hard time in which to study and grow, and yet the Class of 1937 has achieved distinction and comes to graduation bearing the fruit of four years in terms of an enriched, expanded, and vitalized living. $ 22 f -

GENERAL COLLEGE Spruill, Dean 1936-37 is the first year of full responsibility of the General College for all freshmen and sophomores in the University at Chapel Hill, excepting only those in the School of Pharmacy. For these underclassmen, 1264 in number, the faculty and administrative staff of the General College attempt to provide appropriate studies and helpful guidance. The courses of study are intended: (1) to present those basic subjects which are considered to be essential to a liberal education, (2) to provide opportu- nities for the discovery and development of interests and aptitudes, and (3) to contribute to preparation for later specialized training. The administrative staff is concerned with the more effective adaptation of our educational resources to the needs of the individual. A faculty committee of nine advisors works with a group of forty dis- tinguished upperclassmen in welcoming first-year students to Chapel Hill and in introducing them to the activities of the community. From the time of admission until the beginning of the junior year each stu- dent is associated with one of the advisors who tries to help him make here the best use of the several means of physical, intellectual, and spiritual growth. Thus through the advisors the University attempts to maintain with every student a human relationship devoted to the fullest development of his qualities and greatest powers. Ui The Freshman Advisors
