Kynewisbok Introduction Fresh and strong the world we seize . . . Pioneers! O Pioneers wrote Walt Whitman in his poem which inspired the choice of the designation Pioneers for sons and daughters of the University of Denver. In the pages of the 1960 Kynewisbok which follow you will find evidence of the same zest, the same spirit and the same restless drive to surge forward that has been both the bright tradition and the unmistakable hallmark of this western pioneer of higher education. In its contents you will see the educational mission of the Univorsity reflected through its most important product, you the student. And you will discover as have classes past and as will those yet to come, that if learning is dynamic, so must be the institutions providing it. As you are in process toward a degree symbolizing a further step in what should bo lifelong learning, so is your university in process towcnd ever higher levels of achievement in the complex business of higher education. Progress in the later area can be measured in physical growth, whether it be construction of new residence halls and engineering research facilities, ground breaking for a law center, or restoration of a lovely historic chapel. It can be measured in the scholarly and research accomplishments of a distinguished faculty. And, finally, it can be measured in the success of its alumni who graduate from its halls to make contributions of highest significance to society. Less easily measured but most important is the University's ability to mold imaginative, creative, reasoning and responsive young men and women. To do this, the institution must help each student find himself as an individual; then it must help him loose himself in interests, causes and ideas larger and more enduring than he. , . This, the 1960 Kynewisbok, is the visual record o. such a quest. As partners in it. in the concluding words of Poet Whitman, we must never yield or falter. Chester M. Alter, Chancellor 7
