 My Fellow Alumni:
Our University will soon conduct her l05th annual Com-
mencement Exercise. It is expected that more than 3,000
degrees will be awarded during the ceremonies, May l3, in
the Coliseum.
The class of l972 will raise our total of living alumni Al
to more than 50,000. This, coupled with the enrollment
of the "Spirit of '76" class in the fall, signals a new
era at UK. We are no longer alumni of a struggling, land-
grant college buried in the mid—South. We are not products
of a "cow college." This University is growing by leaps
and bounds. With a 350—acre main campus and l3 two—year
community colleges, UK utilizes more than $200 million in
facilities. Our total enrollment may top 35,000 in the
fall of 1972 with more than 20,000 on the Lexington cam-
pus.
This is YOUR University, growing in, and serving, a thri-
ving state and nation. Despite all to the contrary, UK
is a progressive institution and much of this can be cre-
dited to her concerned alumni.
The University is grateful for the support given by her (m?
alumni. Not only that which can be counted, but the in- Hmt
tangible support which adds so much to the luster of an SMX
already illustrious institution. lmd
However, we can and must do so much more if our Univer- lx?
sity is to maintain her rate of growth. Talk with your lk;
fellow alumni, convince them to give their support and Ag]
demonstrate, as you have, their faith in the purposes bM(
and goals of their institution. And then, let's uphold Fd]
UK with our talents, gifts and services BEFORE the need “@a
becomes desperate. Let's KEEP KENTUCKY GROWING. Cm]
