CHANCELLOR’S MESSAGE Your contribution to humanity, whatever it may be, will be determined in a large measure by what you are. Into “what you are” goes something of all your University experience: an inspiring teacher, a cup of coffee in the Tuck Shop, a crackling fire in the Commons Room, classrooms that teach, enduring friendships, beauty in Gothic arches, cherry blossoms on the lawn, a University prom, a Stephen Foster melody, a character which you have lived in a play, an anthem you sang in the Choir, competition in sports, Christmas carols with the scent of pine trees. Throughout your life these memories will always be a part of you, shaping your character, and getting somehow into the lives of your children and of all those with whom you associate. My hope for each of you is that through your University experience you may discover your latent power and be thoroughly prepared to use it for a better world. VII

A comprehensive statement of the meaning of die Nationality Rooms has been expressed by Dr. John (1. Bowman, President Honorarius of the L’niversity of Pittsburgh: “Warmth of heart, recognition of nobility in character and of beauty in homely, useful objects, respect for order ai fine craftsmanship, reverence for the true and lovely, intense feeling, and an extraordinary zest for doing are recaptured in their original energy throughout the materials and design of these rooms. Each room, itself an articulate expression of nobility by a people, speaks to faculty and to students: 'There is joy in books, in art, in ideas, in friends, and in common things. Education is learning to live in a world illuminated with kindness, wonder, and g!adncs$|The joy in these is yours to understand, to perfect within yourself, to live by, and to pass on.’ ” These panes show nineteen classrooms, each one devoted to a particular people’s ideals. When the Cathedral of Learning was erected, the people who made possible the city of Pittsburgh and the University created the Nationality Rooms, arranging them in beauty around the Commons Room. Dedicated to the ideal of preserving national heritages, the rooms are a lastin monument to Pittsburghers of all origins. At the University of Pittsburgh we may see at close hand the work of those who developed the principles by which we live. VIII
