THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
Commencement, 1907.

Commencement 1907.
This year the University discor
tinues q practice of long standing b.
not sending out individual invita-
tions to the commencement exel
cises. It is hoped that the abandon
ment Of the individual invitation will
not be construed by those who hav
been accustomed to receive 1t, as In
dicating that their attendance a
commencement Is not desired thi
year. Those who come will find thei
presence not less appreciated than !
has been in previous years. Thei
welcome will not be less warm be
cause they have not, for one reasol
or another, been singled out from tn
great mass of their fellow citizens 0
the state, some of whom, though I'm
invited, may manifest an interest II
the university as warm as theirs
and perhaps more active, though les
conspicuous by reason of the les
conspicuous positions Of these unin
vited friends. In word, the aband
onment of the individual invitation
has been suggested, not by the de
sire on the part of the University t
restrict its hospitality on commence
ment day within closer limits, bu
rather by the desire to enlarge thu
range of that hospitality in the ut
most measure possible. The ampl'
size of the auditorium in Robinson
Gymnasium renders it possible Il
hope that this year room may b.
found for all citizens of the state, al
well as for all other friends of thu
university, whose interest In the in
stitution may urge them to attent
commencement, and whose situation
make attendance possible 1t Il
with pleasure, therefore, that tn
University of Kansas extends gen
eral invitation to its friends, bot
alumni and others, to be present a
the commencement exercises tina
will be held in the new Robinson
Gymnasium, Wednesday, June 8.
