and Salem Grew Up Around the School and the Twain Have
Progressed Together Throughout the Years.
"A good year." Those two words
sum up President Carl Q. Doney's
report on the scholastic year
1927-1928 at Willamette univer
sity, and students, faculty, and
those of the alumni and friends
who keep close watch on the pro
gress and achievements of Salem's
university, have agreed -without
any exception or qualification.
Recognition of Willamette by
the Association of American Uni
versities, carrying with it accept
ance of Willamette's credits by ill
schools of higher learning in the
country, was the outstanding
achievement of the year. It will
also make possible the securing of
certain desirable honorary fraternities.
Attention has been largely fo
cused on the law school in the past
year, particularly the steps now
being undertaken to bring this de
partment to an accredited basl3."
The first step was the securing of
Roy E. Hewitt as dean, and for
the coming year a second full timo
faculty member has been employ
ed. Bringing the library up to
requirements and rearranging the
curriculum to conform with the
standards for accredited law
schools, are being undertaken
gradually.
In connection with the annual
trustees, meetings when the above
mentioned report of President
Doney was submitted, tne most
important action taken was a de
cision to proceed at once with
closing up the million dollar en
dowment that was undertaken to
be raised by the forward move
ment several years ago.
The Rockefeller foundation of
fered $335,000 toward the million
dollars. The trustees at that time
accepted the offer and undertook

At the trustee's meeting In June,
Hon. Robert A. Booth, as chair
man of the committee on endow
ment, recommended that definite
action be taken to finish the
matching of the Rockefeller
money; 1 65 for every 35 of
Rockefeller funds.
The plan adopted at that time
was that of asking friends of the
university to secure pledges of
$100,000 by the time fo the meet
ing of the Oregon Methodist con
ference at Hood River In Septem
ber. Mr. Booth reported that
there were already tentative of
fers of over 350,000. Pledges for
this first $100,000 were wanted
only in amounts of 3500 or over.
They were to be made conditional
upon the raising and paying of the

Since Early Days
As an important link in the un

made Salem an outstanding cul-

Cultivation of the virtues which
are the epitome of true woman

the purpose to which the Sisters of
the Holy Names devote their ef

well equipped building which Is
at their disposal.

Pledges slightly in excess of that; hole amount by October 1 of next
amount were secured. The time
limit was October first of this
year. There was also some in
debtedness of the university that
was included in the undertaking.
Payments have been made con
tinuously on the pledges, and they
still continue. But it has been
foreseen for some time that there

maining $150,000 will start im
mediately after the conference.
Providing this endowment fund
of a million and a half dollars is
secured, as it seems certain that
it will, the university will be in
position to add to its teaching force

ed to October first. 1299.
It is estimated that it will be
necessary to secure new pledges to
the extent of $250,000. In order
to meet the full requirements of
the Rockefeller offer. They will
have to be paid in money or in se

This will bring the total endow

There are more and better opportunities open in busi
ness for young people than in any other line, but It requires
preparation to get started. This school has been training
young people for thirty-nine years, and under the present
management for thirty-eight.
Thousands have completed its courses and passed out
into the business life of the Pacific Northwest, and thous
ands more will do so. It la open the entire year to serve its
pupils and the business men of the community.
The past year has been a very successful one In point
of enrollment and work done, but next year will doubtless
surpass it if present indications are a true index. Many are
already calling at the school to talk over and arrange for
the coming fall's work, and a number have recently en
rolled. The school is Jn session throughout the entire summer.

The School and The Town
The beginnings of Willamette
university were made before Salem
was a town. The town grew up
around and with the schol. They
have struggled and progressed to
gether throughout the history of
both.
In all the years the school has
been the chief cultural asset of
the town. It still i3 and will ever
be. The city and the university
will grow together indefinitely.
The pioneer schol of all the Ore
gon country has a great back
ground. Its goodinfluences radi
ate around the world. Graduates
and old students are in every civ
ilized country.
Willanxtte has come to be a
great business asset to this com
munity, as it has-always been an
important one.
Freshman days this year will
begin Sept. 14. Registration of
old students will be Sept. IS, and
recitations will begin the next day.

Business colleges have been an
essential part of the: business life
of this country for the last forty
to fifty years. They have proved
their worth long ago, or they
would not have survived so long.
These schools serve a double
mission. First, to the students who
enroll, in supplying them with a
training which may be put to use
in the business life of the commun-
'ity, and second to the business
men who must be supplied with
clerical help of one kind and?an
other as their demands require.
The business school adapts Itself
to these needs in that it is In ses
sion throughout the entire year
and it" enrolls its pupils af any
time during the year, so that it
ihas advanced pupils and graduates
j ready to go out into business life
