The Department of Classical Literature has for two years co-operated with the Woman's Clubs of the City in studies of the Greek Civilization and its mean- ing to the modern world, by giving lectures and performances of classical plays. The Alliance Francaise, organized this year, is composed of both citizens and College faculty and students. A summer session of the Univer- sity is conducted annually for the especial benefit of the teachers of the City, County and State. No stone is left unturned to relate the college studies to the real life of the world. The University of Chattanooga owes its birth and nurture to the noble Christian men, ministers and laymen alike, of the Holston Conference. Its debt to these sacrificing heroes of the early days the University can never repay. But it can and must do the work for which it was created. It can give intellectual impulse of a high order, colored by the beneficent light of the Christian faith, to every young man and woman committed to its care. The University is intended to be a beacon light and its rays are to shine brightly over the entire Conference in benediction on the children of the fathers who founded it. The site of the University is the envy of all other Southern Colleges. The campus is strategically situated between the business and residential por- tions of the City and on the principal avenue. The chief street car lines pass through the campus, conveniently for busy students. The buildings are in full view from every part of the City, Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge. The erection of fine new buildings to replace those that have done long and honorable service is one of the most important pieces of work before our Board of Trustees. The new structures will each be built according to a comprehensive plan that will embrace every building that the future will require. The site of the University and its place in the intellectual life of the South demand one of the finest of college quadrangles, suitable in size, worthy in material, artistic in construction, for every visitor to this historic City passes through or along the campus on his visits to the sacred and glorious scenes of the sixties. Few colleges have more distinguished visitors from ea distance daily passing by its doors than does the University of Chattanooga. . ' ' . The University of Chattanooga cherishes a high confidence in her own future of dignified service and greets affectionately every sister college doing honorable and scholarly work, and wishes to each, in highest esteem, a hearty God-speed. aaa W .fi
