THE GOVERNOR TO THE STUDENTS. FACULTY AND STAFF OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE It gives me a real pleasure to be able to greet you through the pages of The Volunteer. Although I have been a member of the Board of Trustees of the University since 1953, sometimes I feel that the press of other duties has limited my contacts with university personnel, and I welcome this opportunity to visit with you. It is impossible for me to emphasize enough the part the Uni- versity plays in our educational system. Through its many ac- tivities. reaching far beyond the limits of the campuses in Knoxville. Memphis and Martin, the University of Tennessee is helping lead the way toward a fuller, richer life for all our people. The Legislature has appropriated a large sum of money for the operation and enlargement of the University. Although not as large as we all wish that amount could be, it still is a con- siderable portion of the education budget. Your president. Dr. Andrew D. Holt, is a wise and able administrator, and I know he will see to it that the Legislature's appropriation is used for the greatest benefit of the greatest number of our people. No matter how good his plans are. however, they will be to no avail without the cooperation of every student, every faculty member and every staff member of the University. The value of the money, the time and the interest invested by our people in the University of Tennessee must in the final analysis depend upon those to whom this effort is directed—the students. I urge every student, undergraduate and graduate, resident and part-time, to make certain he is doing all he can to make his stay at the University mean as much as it can to himself and to our state. Sincerely,
