Denver University. . . Campus of Contrast 9 -5' R725 f r ' A X 'vii' , 'i fr V View ' we I ,N-:ir . . . a world of contrasts encompassed in a single campus. From the streamlined structure of the Bizad building to the classic columns of Carnegie Hall, DU is a study in contrasts, reflected in her classrooms, her ideas, her students. Here all styles of architecture -classic, con- temporary and unclassified-stand side by side on a campus rapidly nearing its centennial. Founded on May 5, 1864, the DU of today expresses a tradition of varia- tion, of progress. In the 92 years ,since its founding, the University has absorbed ideas and customs of many cultures and civilizations. Students from all over the world have come here to study, bringing with them con- trasting ways of life. They were of different races, colors and creeds. At DU they learned to share and to- ex- change, in doing so they left a contribution to their school. Wide ranges in age and background brought new extremes in ideas. Opposing political and philo- sophical views instilled a spirit of individuality in the University Pioneers. Yet with these contrasts came an underlying awareness of unity. ln these, DU founds her tradition and builds her progress.

-Q Playing the roll l'm sorry, we don't carry apples with time bombs in them. Student life at DU is as informal as the Union at coffee hour. Little incidents, informal get-togethers and unplanned parties create the patterns of cam- pus life. ln this section a random assortment of events and scenes around school are caught by the camera. They are informal and unplanned, just as the situations they represent were the spontan- eous reactions of a campus and its students. What do you mean l'm still a freshman?
