We have grown in more ways than one — in fact, growth has been the key wore in all areas. Physically, UB has built or rerr. deled several major campus buildings since In that year, Fones Hall was built; i 1 1950, the Engineering-Technology Building; in 1953, Alumni Hall was remodeled from a private home; in 1955, the Drama Center and Carlson Library were built; in 1956, the gymnasium; and in 1957, the two dormitor­ ies and dining hall. For use in 1959 a sci­ ence building is now being planned. UB oc­ \ cupies at present 40 buildings on 41 acres. Our enrollment has also grown by leaps and bounds. Out of thirty institutions of higher learning in Connecticut, UB is now the third largest — quite different from its original fifty-seven students when the Ju­ nior College of Connecticut was founded in 1927! Intellectually, too, UB has developed in the past ten years. We now offer more op­ portunities for degrees, including the as­ sociate degree for a two-year course, and more and more varied courses than ever before. We attract students and faculty from all over the world to our campus. Perhaps UB's most significant growth has been in its capacity to contribute culturally to the city of Bridgeport. Our music and drama departments offer programs to the public without charge. The Jacoby Lectures are now in their seventh year and have be­ come a traditional part of our academic schedule. UB has increasingly become a meeting place for intellectual organizations, for ex­ hibits in art and science. As important as all these are, even more important is the promise we show of reaching even greater heights of service to our community. i iff ■ Contents INTRODUCTION ADMINISTRATION SENIORS ACTIVITIES SPORTS INDEX ■ i i Foreword lP«The uPeud °f time wh!ch has elapsed betWeen the fali of 1957 and +he sprfng of of thePUn Y r'f^ +hingS +° many Pe°ple' but to +he senior class —b"* b» longer occupy the present, but take their place in the past only to return as memories must the staff, we have reali.ed this and en^a *?'«»°f °Ur life^‘ ^ members>J of but to capture the life as comprised of theTi+tle thin™0"^ h^56^ 3 P'Ct°r'ai reV'eW' when we were here.
