F orewor d . . . I I This is the story of a university and of its students. It tells of the early beginnings of Wisconsin, the first students, the first graduating class, the first buildings. It tells about fighting upward, the growth, and it is also the story of 1949. It tells of struggles for funds and mush- rooming growth and the story of the centennial. The book shows the students, where they lived, what they did, and how they thought. This is the Centennial Badger, the story of a climb up the hill.

tory of Wisconsin ' s ear This is the story of the students, what they did and how they felt during the 100th year of their University. In fall they returned to the campus to find many changes. The Union was com- pletely redecorated. Registration was re- organized and held in the field house, but there were still a few lines. The first week of school was hot and the fraternities and sororities sweltered through fall rushing.
