spoke for a better 8tato university
In the following wordB:
"You havo every reason to bo proud
of our great state university. Tho
state has profited much through the
higher education that has been af
forded through it to tho young men
and women. While at times it may
have seemed to some that tho cost of
building up tho university was con
siderable, I feel you will agree with
me that that cost has been well worth
tho whilo. Wo should not forget
that some members of tho faculty,
who aro classed among the best edu
cators of this country, through loyalty
and dovotion to tho university, have
remained at a much ' dmaljer salary
than they could havo commanded if
they had accepted offers from other
universities. '
