It IS the desire of the College to

eye or other Institutions of equivalent
grace. Only those who have graduated
from these institutions. or others o;v-

ter the College. In view of its facil.
tues and environment the COLLEGE, ;s
IN position to give courses in suh-
7Peas as thorough as any college or

The College derives its benefits hntb
from the Federal and Territorial pov-
ernments. Under the Morrill, Aef of

the Federal government. These funds.
however. are appropriated for the spe

the purchase of books, apparatus and il
Illustrative material for teaching in GER
tam specific subjects pertaining to aqri-
culture. mechanic arts and household
These Federal funds can not be snenf
tor the purchase of lands, the erection
or repair of buildings, or for TEACHING
IN such subjects as the European Ian.
5uages, classics, philosophy, history and
the like. Provision for teaehing in
.hese subjects must be made by the |
territorial legislature. It is therefore |
svident that the legislature, in accept |
ng these Federal grants for the estah- |
lshment of the College has also accent. /
d the obligation to provide for it suit
bile lands and buildings.
Al It's last session the legislature
made appropriations for temporary
until the permanent site for
he College could be located. This site
as now been located in Manoa valley
nd it IS hoped that the coming legis-
Azure will make the necessary appro-
rlations for the construction of a per
lament building adequate to the needs
I the College for the next FIVE or ten
ears on this site
1t is the earnest desire of the Board
Regents, and all Others concerned,
hat comprehensive plan for the
rowth of the College for the next fiftv
r seventyfve years be worked out
nd adopted. IF suitable plan is
orked out it, will not only enable us
J construct college that will be very
-tractive in its setting, but it will also
can saving of many hundreds of
oilars in the construction of future
lildings.
In this respect the College of Ha-
an has a unique opportunity that has
It been made use of by most of the
'lleges on the mainland. That the
'Ilege of Hawaii shall grow into these
any and varied opportunities is our |
rnest desire. [
