UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA CHARLOTTESVILLE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT To the Members of the Class of 1963: You have been privileged to pursue your education in one of the major universities of the nation, and you have been privileged further to pursue your education in the Uni- versity fathered by Thomas Jefferson. The Rotunda and the Lawn are ever-present reminders of the traditions of honor, responsibility, and gentlemanly conduct which are exemplified by Mr. Jefferson and his University. I hope that this l963 edition of Corks and Curls will serve you as a valued, ac- curate, and happy reminder of your days here, which I am confident you will constantly cherish. By definition a university is the institution where advanced training and research in the arts, sciences, and professions can be pursued to the fullest extent possible by man. It is a community of scholars where able teachers and students in various fields of learning have an opportunity to benefit from a mutual exchange of ideas while increasing their competence in particular disciplines. A university is distinguished from a college by the professional and graduate schools which it embraces with its undergraduate college or colleges. A true university offers instruction of superior quality to undergraduates in the arts and sciences and in certain professions, concurrently with advanced training and research. nMr. Jefferson's Universityn fulfills these definitions Additionally, in the South it historically has had the special missions of leadership and service. It was Mr. Jefferson's aim that the University of Virginia should be unique and that it should be a beacon light of excellence to guide the region and the nation. This will always be our aim. The faculty have been privileged to guide you in your search for knowledge. We shall follow your careers with pride and affection. We are confident of the contribution that you will make to the leadership of your community and State, to our nation and the world. Although you leave us now, we hope you will return often to the Grounds to refresh your memories of the days marked by this book. Sincerely yours, V'L. 5, I Edgar F. Shannon, Jr. President 17
