DIR. ANGEL ASKS
AID FOR MICHIGAN
UNION BUILDING

To the Nitizens OF Michigan:
The alumni OF our university
are engaged in a great campaign
TO get subscriptions for 81 200. 900
to erect and endow a building
for the Michigan Union here In
Ann Arbor
This project is one OF such
magnitude and genuine merit
that I feel sure all the citizens
OF the state will sympathize with
the movement and those able to
do so will seek the privilege OF
making contributions to the
union fund.
The union IL the center OF stu
dent life at Ann Arbor outside
the classroom. It's influence for
good has been great, despite It's
meager facilities. To continue
Its work I'm an efficient manner
II requires adequate housing and
an endowment to insure that Its
advantages may always be with
In reach OF every student.
The success OF The union build.
ing campaign will mean that our
university will be enabled to rem
der greater service than ever to
the state. Being an institution OF
the state. I hope to see our citi-
zens rally 10 It's aid in this cam
paign.
A union committe" ic to be
found IN almost every part OF the
state.
For the various committees ]
bespeak your cooperation In this
important work.
Cordially yours.
