Hon. T. J. Hendricks and Hon. B. F. Dorris, are still with us, and to them should be accorded all honor for their tireless efforts in what often looked like a hopeless struggle. For four years the people worked, solicited, prayed, and finally, in the fall of 75, the University opened in the few completed rooms of Deady Hall. lTwas a motley crowd that first presented itself at the portals of Oregonis University, ranging in age anywhere from ten to twenty-three years. The Faculty consisted of President Johnson, Professors Condon and Bailey, Mrs. Spiller, and her sister, Miss Boise. None of them are now living. In the Fall 0f 78, the writer became a member of the teaching staff. The hrst class of live was graduated in 78. What has always been the attitude of the University to- ward its students? That the most valuable assets Of the state are not its mines, its farms, its forests, but its sons and daugh- ters, the future citizens of the State, and that these are entitled to the best that the state can afford in every line of endeavor, and to the best preparation for life,s struggle. The best efforts of the instructors have been for them. No student is permitted to lose his personality in the crowd. Personal over- sight and care of each student are exercised, but not to the extent of interfering with the development of self-reliance or the feeling of personal responsibility for his actions. N0 student body could be more loyal and ready to co- operate with the Faculty for the good of the University than ours always has been. Its alumni, wherever found, are a credit to their Alma Mater, their State, and themselves. The Uni- versity has nothing to be ashamed of. With its limited re- sources, it has gone forward, sometimes slowly, but steadily, building permanently, having faith in the people of Oregon and feeling assured that when once the good citizens of this grand Commonwealth understood the loyalty of both Faculty and students to their State and to the high ideals of what a University should be, they would rally to her support. The writer has no apologies to make for the University. Neither has he any fears as to the final results. In his thirty- four years here as an instructor, tand they have been happy years in association with his llBoys and Girlsy, he has seen many storms arise and dangers threaten, but after the storm, llOld Varsityl, stood there as she always has stood and aIWays Will stand, unmoved, With a silent dignity, an honor to her founders, a reproach to her would-be detractors. -John Straub. nnnuunn .. n . . -ll
