The Students’ Part
Too much emphasis cannot be placed on the part which students
will play in the “Ten Million Dollars in Ten Years’’ campaign as
it is carried on for the next ten years. Two years ago it was found
that one of the greatest factors in swinging the millage fight was
the work and influence of undergraduates. The directors of the
campaign realize the importance of this.
The whole campaign is a problem iri salesmanship. The value
of a university education must be sold to the people who have money
which could be given to the institution for buildings and equipment.
But the students are not so much the salesmen as they are examples
to be used in the selling talks. The biggest part they can have is to
prove that the campaign is worth the expenditure. A university is
judged by the type of students which it graduates and the kind of
work they do in years following. If the campaign is to be a success
graduates and students must demonstrate to prospective donors that
their money will be used to good advantage.
Students can be of great assistance in educating the public to
the needs of the state university and of spreading the endowment
idea. Students and alumni are the greatest means of enlisting the
support of the people in an undertaking of this kind. And it is to
be remembered that long before the completion of the ten years all
of those now enrolled in the University will have gone. They will
have taken their places in business and will be beginning to assume
leadership in their communities.
Everyone should thoroughly understand that recently the growth
of the University has been faster than the growth of the state, and
that to raise enough money by taxation is beyond hop§ at the present
time. Many large colleges and universities depend upon gifts from
friends and it is the logical way to provide new equipment here. At
the present time there is no alternative. The need has forced the
issue, and the campaign lias been inaugurated. Every effort will
be made to put it across.
Students should know conditions and help the publicity of the
campaign, but their greatest responsibility just now is to prove by
their work that higher education is worth the effort.
Honoring Thomas Condon
While it is generally understood that the diminutive shack at
the rear of the Administration building is to be known as Condon hall
only temporarily or until that time when an imposing science build
ing can be erected, it should be known that the conferring of the
honored name of the state’s first geologist and one of the first mem
bers of the faculty of the University of Oregon, Professor Thomas
Condon, is not an official act.
The name of Condon is prized fur too highly to have it attached
to an ignoble wooden structure which will be torn down in a few
years. The memory of Professor Condon—a scientist who first read
from the rocks and water-carved valleys the prehistoric development
of that part of the North American continent known as Oregon and
who labored for many years al an instructor on this campus—is al
ready commemorated by the Condon oaks. It appears rather thought
less that it should be associated with the ephemeral shack which is
now housing a few classes.
