Our Alumni Board has worked closely with President Maucker and other college officials during the past year in making tentative plans for an Iowa State Teachers College Development Program. More detailed information about this program will be presented to Alumni in the near future. I wish to thank each of you who took an active part in the Alumni program during the past year. The fine support of the Friends of the College enabled us to increase our student aid program substan­ tially. It is encouraging to note that each year an increasing number of alumni are doing their bit to help build a strong supporting arm for I.S.T.C. through our Alumni Associatinn. The continuing efforts of all of us will soon make our association's contribution truly representative of the wonderful group of people who are alumni of the Iowa State Teachers College. l have enjoyed serving as your president during the past year and look forward to having an active part in the growth and progress of our association.
