Rather, it is

9 composed of a sharing of commonconcerns, an/ability to focus_ upon common problems; a capacity for communication and discussion, a .general. willto move this University forward." So 'spoke President W. Robert Parks in a faculty convocation

in September 1969. . / This handbOok has been prepared with the hope that it willbehelpfultotheindividual. faculty memberas he or she \vorks in the large and dynamic academic community which is Iowa State. It represents an attempt to answer those questions which are most often raised by the faculty. At the same time it sets forth the commitments that the University makesto you as a member of this academic community. Naturally this handboOk does not- answer all the questions that will occur to you. It does identifysources where additional and more complete information can be obtained.
