•:-() =» » = «• I THE ALUMNI ASSOCI ATION. Formed March 26, 1895. Article I, Section 1, Constitution: The object of this Association shall be the promotion of University interests and the affiliation of its graduates. Officers of the Association for 1910-11 are: President S. Corlett Downey, ' 95 First Vice President David Neil Sudduth, ' 00 Second Vice President Harry Harriman Price, 10 Secretary. Harol D. Coburn, ' 96 Treasurer Hilda D. Roach, 01 Secretary Scholarship Fund Alice HoUiday, ' 00 It might seem almost unnecessary to speak for the Alumni Asso- ciation just now, as it will speak for itself next June. The big reunion of graduates during the commencement season of 1911 is planned as a way of celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the University and the twentieth anniversary of the graduation of its first class. The University could have no more fitting celebration than this gathering of its children from all parts of the country. The first quar- ter of a century in the history of any institution is a very important period, and in this case two institutions are concerned. The Alumni Associa- tion has grown up with the college, sharing its periods of slow and rapid growth, its hours of prosperity and its moments of adversity. No one has had a better chance to learn the nature of loyalty than the graduate who has known his college for five or ten of fifteen years, or, like that first class, for twenty years. But perhaps, after all, ;t is a mistake to speak of trvo institutions. The Alumni Association is part and parcel of the University, and their interests and ambitions are one and the same. It is this that has made Alumni Night so important a part of Commencement Week. The class of 1900 showed us, last year, what a class reunion can be; and it !s the intention of the whole Association to make the 1911 rally the best affair in the history of the University, and, in the words of the college song, to sing our alma mater with the enthusiasm and devotion of loyal sons and daughters ♦(xrx) I -l = o•
