Administration Q 7 zeiiffeni 4 One of the justifications for the expenditure of the amount of time, energy, and money required for the production of a college annual such as the YUCCA lies in the fact that it preserves in an interesting form re- minders of scenes and incidents which occasion throughout the life of its possessor a revival of the year which it represents. lt is a history by suggestion rather than one by narration. Aside from the amuse- ment it affords for the first few days after its distribution, this book will be more highly prized in 1956 than in 1936. Preservation is therefore of relatively more importance than possession. The history of the college has been marked by many significant events, both favorable and unfavorable to its growth. Placing a value upon any one year as compared with another involves the balancing of that which is favorable with that which is unfavorable. Measured by that standard, 1936 appears to be significant in at least three respects. Pirst in order, if not in ultimate importance, is the building program. Pour units of permanent improve- ment will have been completed dur- ing the year, representing a com- bined expenditure of 35566,UOU. The building needs of the college are not solved by these additions, but the relief which they afford is measur- able. 6 O I I I I Second, as listed among the achievements of the year, is the in- auguration of graduate instruction. Advancing standards of the better school systems of the state have set up requirements for instructional staffs which can be met only by those who hold the master's degree. The college therefore instituted a fifth year of professional work lead- ing to the master's degree to enable its students to meet these require- ments. ln spite of the late authoriza- tion of its plans, it enrolled during the year seventy-eight men and women for the long session, and, as this foreword goes to press, it prom- ises to enroll many times this num- ber during the summer session. A statement of achievements would not be complete without men- tion of a noteworthy development among alumni and ex-students of Teachers College of a spirit of active loyalty to the institution. The grat- ifying fact connected with this grow- ing spirit lies in the spontaneity of its development on the part of the ex-students. lt has arisen because of the increasing recognition of the fact that there is a service, essential to the welfare of the college, which can be rendered by no one except by those who have been touched by its influence. Cordially yours, W. 1. MCCONNELL, President. Page 6
