a the 19 6 Greetings : Throvigh the war years it was very much in place to emphasize to students and alumni of Massachusetts State College the contributions of the College to the winning of the war. Tiile nearly 3,000 members of our college family were serving in the armed forces, the College was doing its utmost to serve the state and the union in the fields of agriculture and industry. The record is good. The transition to peace has brought many problems to the College, among them a rapidly increasing student population resulting from the return of a large number of veterans to the Campus and an increasing number of civilian students. We have accepted around 1,000 veterans for the fall of 1946 and there is every evidence that, if we can accept larger numbers, our student enroll- ment will exceed ' 2,500 in the fall of 1947. To meet the problem we are assured temporary housing from the Federal Housing Authority, and the Alumni Building Corporation is going forward aggressively with plans for two new dormitories for men which it hopes and expects will be ready this f all. We are keenly appreciative of the help given us by students, alumni, trustees and friends of the College throughout the state. It makes possible the facing of the future with reasonable optimism. „ p ij
