Many Events Highlight Final Week
President Philip G. D.avidson
Reflects Upon The Past Year
Mrs. Richard Kain
To Offer Program
Just a year ago Mrs. Davidson and I came to the University Harpsichord Solo
of Louisville with great happiness and pride. This past year has
confirmed our pride in the institution and its place in the commu­nity
and has increased our happiness.
Mozart and Bach will be the
featured musicians in a program
of harpsichord music to be given
by Louise Kain on May 24 at the
Playhouse.
It has been a year of change
for all of us. One of the best and
most encouraging developments
at the University has been the
natural and happy way in which
the students from LMC have be­come
part of our student body.
I have also found much pleasure
and satisfaction in working with
members of the Student Council
and other student leaders. The
Medical and Dental Student Coun­cils,
it seems to me, have been
particularly active. During this
year we have had the advice of
students on many major Univer­sity
p~oblems , and we have al­ways
found a sense of responsi­bility
on the part of our campus
leaders.
Probably the most obvious
changes that have taken place
during the year have been on the
Belknap Campus itself. The new
Science Building will not only
provide superior facilities for the
basic sciences, but will free other
buildings which w i 11 provide
space for student activities and
relieve congestion in other class­rooms.
The enlarged parking fa­cilities,
especially those on the
north side of the campus, will, in
all likelihood, meet the parking
problem on the campus for some
time to come. Gardiner Hall has
been modernized at relatively
small cost and now provides in­structional
facilities that we could
not possibly equal short of half a
million dollar building. The role
of the Woman's Building in cam­pus
life has been enlarged by its
complete renovation. ..
There have been some good
signs, too, of intellectual growth
on the Campus as well as physical
changes. The student response to
Ambassador F r a n k s' amazing
clarity of expression and incisi­veness
of mind, Mr. Coffin's
laughter and poetry, and Dr. But­trick's
extraordinary knowledge
of faraway places has been en­couraging.
The operas and the modern
music festival given by the
School of Music have been won­derfully
impressive.
Some good beginnings have
Mrs. Kain is the wife of Dr.
been made, but an enormous
amount remains to be done. We
need to join together in under­standing,
affection, and good will
to get it done. That we will get
it done, I have no doubt.
