Cfc =C2r J! Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2011 with funding from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign http://www.archive.org/details/illinaeleavesOOuniv ; - \ Xx(o U~ fWvo uppt3 FOREWORD THE 1928 Mortar Board first conceived the idea of publishing a booklet which would give the new students such information as they might wish and was difficult to gather in any other way. Because of the general need of such a booklet, Woman's League took over the idea and decided to publish this for all new University Women. Woman's League wishes to thank the 1928 Mortar Board for the inspiration for the booklet and much of the work done and material used Dean Maria Leonard for her helpful suggestions and encouraging praise ; and the Illini Publishing Co., particularly Mr. Victor Krannert, for their aid in this work. If all the alumni of the last fifty years were to come back to Illinois, marching in solid phalanx, class by class, each bearing its own contribution to its Alma Mater, of scholastic honors, Illinois traditions, and campus activities,—what a history replete it would reveal, one to be revered, to be loved and remembered. Thus this little booklet comes,—a compilation of the "deals and ideals" of the University women reflecting the life and loyalty of the campus today, which have been built up from year to year and perfected year by year by the women students of dear old Illinois. Maria Leonard, Dean of Women. — DEDICATION TO THE future Illini—those ever increasing number of freshmen who come each year this booklet is dedicated with the hope that it may carry to them knowledge of that valuable part of their education not obtainable from books ; that it may help to imbue in them the true Illini spirit ; and that it may prove to be a source of information and inspiration to them all. ; ^History of the University The Illinois Industrial University was incorporated by the General Assembly of Illinois February 28, 1867, following the "Land Grant Act" of 1862. It was opened March 2, 1868, fifty students enrolling for the first term ; the faculty consisted only of Regent John M. Gregory and two professors. The Trustees voted to admit women to the University on March 3, 1870, and in 1870- 71, twenty-four enrolled. Authority was given to the University to confer degrees in 1877. Under the first Regent, John M. Gregory who served from 1867 to 1880, progress was made, and the agricultural and indus- trial phases of the curriculum were emphasized. Selim Hobart Peabody, Regent from 1880 to 1891, secured the first state appro- priation for the University for expenses of instruction, although Regent Gregory had secured funds for building. Under Regent Peabody, engineering courses were most popular and during his term of office the University was more a technical than an agri- cultural University. The name of the institution was changed in 1885 to the University of Illinois. Regent Peabody retired in 189 1 and Doctor T. J. Burrill acted as Regent until 1894 when Doctor Andrew Sloan Draper was elected President. Doctor Draper reorganized the general admin- istration policies of the University so thoroughly and well that many of his plans have been in operation since, with little change. President Draper resigned in 1904, and was followed by Doctor Edmund Janes James, President from 1904 to 1920, Doctor David Kinley from 19 19 to 1930, President Harry Woodburn Chase from 1930 to 1933, and President Arthur Daniels since 1933. Since President Draper's election the University has constantly grown and advanced. State and national funds have increased the building and instructional facilities until the University now stands as one of the most important universities of the United states ADMINISTRATION The offices of the Dean of Men, President of the University, Registrar, Bursar, and Architect, and the business offices of the University are located in the Administration Building. The office of the Dean of Women is in the Woman's Building. The office of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is in University Hall that of the College of Education in the Administration Building; and those of the rest of the schools and colleges are in their various buildings.S 4 THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is composed of the various presidents, editors, business managers, and leaders of the many campus activ- ities and publications. This council guides campus life and makes suggestions for changes in administration.

The group was unveiled during commencement in June 1929 and is in place at the south of the Auditorium. Illinois traditions On the campus, several Illinois traditions are observed. Smok- ing is prohibited in all University buildings and on all University grounds from Springfield to Pennsylvania Avenues, and from Mathews Avenue to Wright Street. Illini do not "cut corner" on campus ; nor do they mar trees or shrubbery, pick flowers, deface buildings or walk on the grass. To do such is inexcusable in true Illini. An Illini man removes his hat immediately upon entering a campus building. Illini do not leave before the end of an athletic contest. Cour- tesy and consideration for others prompts this tradition. HONOR The Honor System of conducting examinations is not at present in use in the University, but keeping personal honor high is the aim of all Illini in examinations, sports, and activities. ILLINI CODE OF SPORTSMANSHIP A true Illini sportsman will Consider all athletic opponents as guests and treat them with all the courtesy due friends and guests. Accept all decisions of officials without question. Never hiss or boo a player or official. Never utter abusive or irritating remarks from the sideline. Applaud opponents who make good plays or show good sports- manship. Never attempt to rattle an opposing player, such as a pitcher in a baseball game or a player attempting to make a free throw in a basketball game. Seek to win by fair and lawful means, according to the rules of the game. Love the game for its own sake and not for what winning may bring him. "Do unto others as he would have them do unto him." "Win without boasting and lose without excuses." ILLINOIS LOYALTY All Illini rise and men remove their hats whenever "Illinois Loyalty" is played or sung. No other song is thus honored. SENIOR BENCH The Senior Bench, the memorial of the Class of 1900 placed in front of University Hall near the Law Building, is for the exclu- sive use of Seniors and Graduates. No others may sit on it. LINCOLN TABLET Set in the floor of the lobby of Lincoln Hall is a copy of Lin- coln's Gettysburg Address. Tradition and respect demand that no one step on the tablet. 6 ILLIBUCK Illibuck, a big wooden turtle, is the bone of contention between Ohio and Illinois and must make his home with the team winning the annual Ohio-Illinois football tilt. Between halves Illibuck is brought onto the field to greet his present and future masters. MORTAR BOARD Some May morning the campus awakes to find the Mortar Board Scroll on the Senior Bench. On it are the names of those Junior women who have been selected for the honor because of activity, scholarship and character. On the day of their election, the new Mortar Boards wear caps and gowns as a sign of their selection. Later, tiny pins are the symbols of Mortar Board. It is customary with Mortar Board to serenade houses on the campus prior to their selection of members. TORCH The bright orange scarves of Torch are awarded to a number of sophomore women at one of the last band concerts in April. Torch is the honorary activity organization for Junior women, and its members are selected from active sophomore women on the basis of leadership, service, scholarship, character and friendliness. Each Wednesday, Torches appear on campus wearing their scarves, which are orange with a blue torch stencilled on one end and a blue University of Illinois monogram stencilled on the other. Also on Wednesdays, members of Torch serve at Woman's League tea. MA-WAN-DA Ma-Wan-Da, Senior men's honorary, hangs its arrowhead on the tree in front of University Hall on the Friday of Interscho- lastic week-end.
