PAGE Two THE TEXAS TECHSAN The ultimate possibilities of utilizing these machines for personal and group needs are unknown and virtually un­ tapped. At the speed with which technological developments are now occurt'ing, it is entirely possible that instruction on many university campuses as we know it today may be essentially outmoded in another decade. Turning more particularly to Texas Tech University, the most probable major development of the seventies will be a dramatic increase of activity related to Tech's accepted mssion. When the Coordinating Board of Texas COllege and University System asked each institution to accept a special role, Tech chose to delineate a role pertinent to the problems of its setting but wit1h a world orientation. The special role and scope of the University complex-the study of the arid and semi-arid lands of the world--can only become exponentially more significant and important as the ara'ble lands of rhe world are more fully utilized by its burgeoning population. By -the dose of the decade, Texas Tech- University should be the -recognized world-wide c~nter for the study and dissemination of knowledge of the dry lands of the earth and how people live on them. This role and the Unive~ity's resulting perspective and her designation as the major university in the western part of Texas call upon Tech to assume greater leadership in higher education in the southwest. Thus, one may expect a large increase in scholarly conference and meetings in D.R. G.ROVE.R E. MURRAY this decade, anJ we have already begun work on an im­ porta-!lt national one which wiH be on this campus in developments. New emphasis will ·be added, however, and about two years. problems of human ecology will receive much attention. During the coming decade, Texas Tech University wit! The College of Arts and Sciences wili experience p~;o­ continue its growth as a major multi-pur-pose state univer­ nounced strengthening of the basic discrplines snpportive sity, increasingly national and internationa:l in its scope of Tech's professiona-l schools and disciplines.
