M. - -1- Tulane and the Comn1unity • • • TULANE UNIVERSITY is an integral part of the New Orleans community. The university's primary roles of education, research and service are largely focused on this area, affording op portunities for thousands of students of all ages to advance academically, contribut ing to the increase of knowledge, and providing a wide variety of community services, rang ing from the upgrading of elementary education to the delivery of health services. The university's programs and its calendar of events cover almost every aspect of life and make possible fre quent interaction between the university family and its neighbors. This gathering tonight is but one manifestation of this, offering not only recreation for thousands of persons but also a chance for visitors to see the obvious signs of Tulane's progress and to exchange views with students, faculty and staff about the university's mission and its impac t on the community. Athletic events bring visitors to the campus throughout the year. And there are many other occasions. Stage performances, concerts, lectures. And, also, throughout the year, conferences, seminars and major conventions of scientific, professional and busi ness organizations which attract to the campus not only persons from this area but visitors from many distant points. Tulane, in fact, has become a core of many com munity interests-in art and the performing arts, in health and medicine, in science, law, engineering, archit ecture , business and education, to name but a few. For whatever stimulus it does provide, Tulan e is re warded amply through the stimulation it, in turn, receives from the participation in its activities of so many from outside the university. For the public's participation in all of these functions provide the leavening ingredient needed to enable Tulane to continue to improve in the accomplishment of its missions.
