THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN MADISON OFFICE QF THE PRESIDENT This issue of the Badger differs distinctively from other issues which have been brought to focus on University problems and trends. It seeks to reflect the beauty of the environment in which Wisconsin students are privileged to pursue the enterprise of learning. In doing this, however, the Badger is reflecting the spirit of the institution and exemplifying the Wisconsin tradition quite as much as if it dealt soberly and at length with University problems and trends. For beauty means poise and freshness and vitality and proportion and a right relating of otherwise diverse elements. And this, I think, is a rather decent definition of the Wisconsin spirit as well.

SCOTT HOLLAND GOODNIGHT Dean of Men Dean of the Summer Session Dear Class of ’36: You are, doubtless, not a perfect ’36, but it may be successfully contended, I believe, that you are one of the best qualified classes that has graduated from the University in several decades. The reasons lie more, perhaps, in your environment and in the effect upon you of general social and economic conditions than in yourselves. Recent classes, notwithstanding their earnestness, have been graduating into the futility and stagnation of unemployment. Classes prior to 1930 had had a too joyous and carefree outlook on life and had not found it necessary to take college work too seriously. In contrast to the first group, you are graduating at a time when the outlook is brightening and when you can go forth with some expectation of realizing the purposes of your training. In contrast to the earlier groups, your student days fell in a depression period which has brought about a more serious interest in study, in selfculture and in the problems of public life than any student generation has had for decades. The difficulties are not all gone, even yet. Some of you may fail to find employment or you may meet with frustration and disappointment, hut, as a class, you go forth probably better equipped and with better prospects than your predecessors for many years. Wisconsin is proud of you and wishes you well. Cordially yours. Page 26
