Cornhusker affiliation," he
said.
The Chancellor said the Uni
versity rates the 1963 fresh
man class as the best pre
pared group it has received
and predicted that a record
proportion of it will earn
degrees.
The prediction is based on
the improved preparation be
ing given by high schools, on
the high scholastic standing of
entering freshmen, on greater
student determination to stay
in school, and on the "Uni
versity's continuing policy to
do all we can to help yon
succeed", he said.
Remarking that many peo
ple regard the near-at-hand as
common place and glorify the
distant about which they know
less the Chancellor said, "I
hasten to report to you that
the University is a distin
guished institution of higher
education."
He pointed out that it has
long been affiliated with the
Association of American Uni
versities, an elite ' academic
society composed of 41 of the
nation's high-ranking colleges
and universities.
