May 13 is unusually significant. It is the 1 first expression to the alumni of aims and ( plans by the new executive after nearly a year as president and it is the official anni- • versary address doubly significant because of the change of name which took effect on that day. It follows : ' FICLLOW A L U M NI OF THE) O LD M. A. C. I AND T I IL Nivw M. S. C.: lads found I wish we could have a picture of what is now this Campus, as it looked sixty-eight ' years ago today, when a little bunch of farm their way out from the village of Lansing, across the swamp, to what was then merely a clearing in the woods, and what is now one of the most I beautiful college campuses in the land. pretty suppose green and the little raw, and certainly group of simple buildings would today seem inadequate for the purpose of laughably of college education. those youngsters looked But those boys were pioneers in every sense. They were the first students in the first agricultural college in the world. They too, and they and their were good stuff teachers Into the woods they came, but out of the woods they carved a real college. laid the foundations well. And that is the day we celebrate, the anniversary day of the old M. A. C. It is well for us to look back over the valiant past, to take stock of what has been done and to pay honor to those who did it. T oo easily do we forget the words and the work of our predecessors. We reap wdiat they did sow and our abundant harvest is large ly the result of their skillful husbandry. The founders of this College were men with big ideas, abundant faith and practical sense. They knew wdiat they were about; they had an eye to the great future; they believed in Michigan and in Michigan agri culture. The State Agricultural society made a careful study of the need and value of an agricultural college and how best to get one, and after a number of years of discussion and agitation they put it across and were responsible for this great piece President Joseph R. Wil of pioneering. liams was one of the leaders in this work and his address at first president of the College statesmanlike grasp of the province and possibilities of a college like this. We must not forget the intelligent, loyal, and extensive service of such members of the State Board of Agri culture as Judge Wells, Franklin Wells, J. Chamberlain, Webster Childs, Charles W. Garfield, and C. J. Monroe, to mention only a few of those of the "old guard", but not forgetting the equally im portant service of those of later years and those who are now members of the Board and responsible for its present policies. fine and shows a H e n ry T he College, of course, was wonderfully fortunate in its early faculties and we can never pay our debt to T. C. Abbot and Manley Miles and George T. Fairchild and Robert C. Kedzie and A. J. Cook and Wil liam J. Beal. They were giants in those into days and they built their large ideas our College. But we also celebrate today what will become, as it were, a new birthday for the College. Today the act of the last Legis lature changing the name of the College from the "Michigan Agricultural College"' to the "Michigan State College of Agricul ture and Applied Science'' becomes a law. So it is off with the old and on with the Page 468 new.

By all means, let us set our minds toward pre serving all the good that has come through the past purposes, traditions, methods, spirit, discarding all that we may find that is less good, and so push ahead under the banner of M.

The total building appropriations for the the coming two years passed by legislature aggregate something over a mil lion and a quarter dollars.

The students have set out a campaign for new students under the slogan "a thousand Freshmen next fall". two years the flattery, merely the simple truth In the present legislature we owe a great debt of gratitude for earnest support given by many members of both houses.

I would not for one moment minimize the response that has funds been made by alumni to the call for for this building but I think it is only fair to say that the support is not yet complete and adequate enough. I hope the alumni realize not only how big and important an is to the College equipment addition but also their responsibility it through. for seeing this in this little Nor do I hesitate talk about financial aid to mention the People's church and its needs for it is, at present, and probably will be for many years if not for all time, the College church. We all recognize the value of such an institution at our very door. While technically outside our management, practically it is one with us in the work of the institution. And now I want to speak a brief per sonal word, more as an alumnus rather than as the president of the College. I have had a thrilling experience this year, com ing back as I have in active service here, after an absence of a quarter of a century. It seems almost like a dream. Things have been strangely familiar and yet familiarly strange. I am constantly reminded of the old days, in spite of the fact that buildings, equipment, teachers, of those old days are few and the finest cooperation from every this year, body. I want to do my bit for the College the state of the College for and through Michigan, But after all, a College presi dent cannot do very much of himself. It is largely a matter of securing the coopera tion of all with whom he works. And I want to tell you as Alumni and former stu dents how much it means to the president of a College to feel that not only are the Alumni with him in spirit, but that they are ready to stand by, and to give some time far between. I have had and thought and energy to the interests of the College. This is a great day for the new Michigan I am glad to have the priv State College. I am particularly ilege of sharing in it all. glad to have this chance tonight to speak to you even though I cannot see your faces. toasts let me propose In closing, two that I gave to the students yeterday: Here's to the old M. A. C, Mother of Agricultural Colleges, and Alma Mater of a host of strong men and women. Here's facing a to the new M. S. C, great future with all the daring and ad venture of vouth. PRESIDENT ROGERS EXTENDS INVITATION In his address on Anniversay Day, Presi dent Rogers, '83, of the M. A. C. Associa tion, described some of outstanding features of the College of most interest to alumni and former students. H is address follows : To TIIIV A L U M NI AND F O R M ER S T U D E N TS the OF M. A. C. AND F R I E N D S: In this brief radio talk I wish to empha size to my unseen audience four outstand ing things that I trust will be of interest to every friend of our College. First, through and many the untiring efforts of '02 and Representative Senator Horton of MacKinnon with other '95 alumni and well wishers of the College, the "Horton-MacKinnon Bill" has now become a law and the name of the College changed from the "Michigan Agricultural College" to the "Michigan State College of Agricul ture and Applied Sciences", which all must admit is much more appropriate to a Col lege giving such varied courses as Agricul ture, Engineering,' H o me Economics to in Applied gether with regular courses Indeed old Sciene and the Liberal Arts. M. A. C. has become a modern university with out sacrificing any of the pride and prestige which the College has acquired as the oldest and perhaps the best College of Agriculture in America. Page 470 The M. A. C. Record Second, with all this we should not over look the fact that the College has acquired a new president—Kenyon L. Butterfield of '91. who has now been at the College for nearly a year and has conclusively shown that he is fully alive to the best traditions of the past as well as the future possibilities of our ever growing Alma Mater. courses of Third, among the many changes at the increased en to a much College incident rollment with varied study, might be mentioned such new buildings as the gvmnasium. the stadium. Olds hall of the engineering, the Agricultural building, being new Horticultural building erected) the new the new Library and Home Economics building, while money a new has Chemistry building. just been appropriated (now for this With all there seemed to be one thing lacking to cement the entire student body regardless of society affiliations and that thing was a suitable Union building. This the loyal students, past and present, and Alumni have undertaken to supply in the form of a "Union Memorial Building" which should not only be a home for re turning alumni and former students but a general and common meeting place for faculty and students and their friends. Many of our boys have given their all in the three wars which have occurred since the College was founded, but most of them in the great World W a t, sad memories of which still remain. Subscriptions for this building were first undertaken time prices in 1919 but war caused a delay and work was not officially started until 1923 when W. K. Prudden of '78, turned the first sod at our annual re union. the exterior At the reunion in 1924 we laid the cor ner stone and the building is now practi cally complete so far as is I wish I could transmit a re concerned. cent photograph of the structure as it now appears. However to say that no other building on the Campus pre sents a__finer appearance nor will be of greater service to the whole College. it is sufficient financing was granted by Pledges to date amount to near $330,000 on which about $130,000 has been paid. Temporary the legislature in the form of a loan of $300,- 000 which must be repaid to the state in annual installments covering a period of ten years. This means that at least $200,- 00 in new pledges are required. We need your support. Fourth, there is only one way to really learn what has happened to old M. A. C. and what the possibilities for new M. S. C. really are and that is to come back occasion ally and see the place. '65, '70, '75, '80, '85, 90, This year Alumni Day will be on Satur day, J u ne 20, the graduation exercises oc- curing on the following Monday. While the classes of 7 8, '79, '80, '81, '97, '98, '99, 1900, '16, '17, '18, '19 and '24 are especially expected to be back at this reunion and the classes of '95, 1900, '05. To, '15 and '20 are supposed to have anniversary days at that time, I wish to especially urge every alumnus and for mer student who can possibly do so to be present this year. New buildings the new Union Memorial building, which will be partly opened at that time) new roads, a somewhat re-arranged Campus and many new members of the faculty will be there to greet you.
