IN In the years to come, as Father Time marches, along with his fleeting pace, the University of Tennessee will remain staunchly aloft on its ilHallowed Hillf imperrious 0f the passage of time. For although the buildings will house new students, the class- rooms seat new occupants. and the paths be trod by different feet. the traditions of our University will not die. For the hopes and dreams of its loyal Alu m ni will live, finally to burst forth in scenes of reality. Those men will not be forgotten whose lives have been dedi- cated to carrying on the tradtions 0f. the University of Tennessee. whose efforts have been directed toward its improvement, whose loving hands have helped to mold it into an institution of high standards and ideals. For everywhere on the campus evidence is shown of their hopes, ambitions and achievements. It is to the memory of the late Dr. Eugene A. Waters, past Dean of the Grad- uate School and Academic Vice President whose efforts and achievements were of ine-stimable value to the University of Ten- nessee, that the 1957 VOLUNTEER is dedicated.

THE GOVERNOR a HONORABLE FRANK G. CLEMENT T0 the Students: The face and the tempo of Tennessee are rapidly changing. Nothing better illustrates this fact than the recent introduc- tion into the curriculum at the University of Tennessee of a course in nuclear engineering. Our population is rapidly expanding and shifting. New industries in ever-increasing numbers are finding permanent homes within the borders of our state, New social problems are confronting us, and we are learning to deal with old human problems, such as mental illness, in new and more ef- fective ways. It is reassuring to know that as these new problems con- front us, our own abundant university is training our citizens to solve the problems; to give direction to the exciting new resources that are coming within our command. The extent to which Tennessee participates in the dynamic Changes of our time will be largely in your hands. As chair- man of your Board of Trustees7 as Governor of the State you serve, and simply as a citizen not too far removed from your own generation, I strongly share the confidence of your par- ents and your teachers in the manner in which you will dis- charge this trust.
