CHARTERED in February, 1851, by the Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Min­ nesota, the University of Minnesota will next year celebrate its one hundredth birthday. While nearing this milestone, as from its very beginning, the University is dedicated to the task of training tjle youth of today, the citizens of tomorrow. How well it has suc­ ceeded is indicated by the number of doctors, lawyers, engineers, social workers, journal­ ists, dentists, farmers, businessmen, and community and civic leaders in all fields-good citizens all-who have gone from its several campuses to actively participate in the upgrading of the welfare of the citizens of our state. During the period of its existence, the University has awarded 97,532 degrees to its students who have completed the rigorous training demanded by the complexities and specialization of modern society. In addition to the enormous task of giving collegiate instruction to some twenty-two thousand students on its Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Duluth campuses, the University offers, through its Schools of Agriculture, its General Extension Division, and its short courses, specialized training designed to assist those who wish to study on a part-time basis. Still in addition, its staff members who are county agents, home demonstration agents, and recreation and health consultants give effective aid and assistance to citizens of the state in their very homes. But the University of Minnesota, like all great universities, has expanded far beyond its early teaching and training programs. In its diverse research laboratories on its three campuses, at the several agricultural experiment stations, at the Rosemount Research Center, and at the University Hospitals, its scientists at any one moment are working on countless research experiments of vital interest to the future health and welfare of all of us. These projects deal with such matters as cancer, poliomyelitis, taxation, low-grade iron ore, cheese making, teacher training, municipal government, nuclear fission, new va­ rieties and strains of grains and fruits, supersonics and transonics, to mention only a few. THE UNIVERSITY is recognized as the cultural hub of the Northwest; it is the home of the Minneapolis Symphony, the University Artists Course, radio station KUOM, the University Theatre, and of the local performances of the Metropolitan Opera Com­ pany. Through the University of Minnesota Concert and Lecture Service and the School Assembly Service, the University brings to more than a million and a half people in the area it serves, artists and lecturers of quality and talent. The people of Minnesota are proud of their University, not because it is the second largest state university in the nation, but because of the extent and quality of its services from which they, their families, communities, and organizations benefit. Their interest in their University is a dynamic, living thing and expresses itself in many ways. Contri­ butions from them now make it possible for the great Mayo Memorial building and for the new Variety Club Heart Hospital to be erected over the corning months. Through the American Legion and auxiliary posts all over the state, thousands of friends have made relatively small gifts to provide an endowed research professorship in heart dis­ eases. Gifts to the Greater University Fund, each appropriately called "A Share in Great­ ness," now being made especially by alumni, are worthy of special mention. All students at the University, their families and friends are invited to continue their enthusiasm and interest in the University of Minnesota. Graduates are especially urged to identify themselves with the University Alumni Association and the Greater Univer­ sity Fund and to return as frequently as possible to visit us here at the University. I I Order of &vents THE ASSEMBLING OF THE AUDIENCE: Members of the Senior Class will form by colleges in front of Coffman Memorial Union, and the line of march will be up the center of the Mall into the Auditorium.

THE NATIONAL ANTHEM (first stanza only): The entire audience and Mr. Roy A. Schuessler, Assistant Professor of Music, soloist. Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? INVOCATION: Reverend Alvin G. Lewis, Member, Minnesota Council of Religion and Adviser to Lutheran students, St. Paul Campus. PRESIDING: Dr. E. G. Williamson, Dean of Students. PRESENTATION OF THE CLASS OF 1950: Mr. George R.

W. Ziebarth, Professor and Chairman, Department of Speech. "HAIL! MINNESOTA," the University's Alma Mater song: The audience and Assistant Professor Roy A. Schuessler, soloist. Minnesota, hail to thee! Like the stream that bends to sea, Hail to thee, our college dear! Like the pine that seeks the blue, Thy light shall ever be Minnesota, still for thee A beacon bright and clear; Thy sons are strong and true, Thy sons and daughters true From thy woods and waters fair, Will proclaim thee near and far; From thy prairies waving far, They will guard thy fame At thy call they throng And adore thy name; With their shout and song, Thou shalt be their Northern Star. Hailing thee their Northern Star. RECESSIONAL: "Toccata in G" - Dubois Associate Professor Arthur B.
