IMPROVEMENTS
MARK BUTLER u.
IN LAST YEAR
College Of Education Is
brought to Campus
Ii in 1893.

The lar Of 1888 witnessed several
outstanding advancements in the
history Of progress Of Butler uni
versity. Chief among them was the
removal sf the location Of the But
Ter college Of education, formerly
located at Twenty-third and Ala
bama STREETS, to the Fairview cam
pus, the granting Of membership in
ne American Association of Uni
versity Women, and the installation
OF printing plant in the Arthur
Jordan Memorial hall
Despite the fact that a great de-
crease in college enrolment VAS
predicted for the year, Butler uni
versity's registration fell only
Slightly below the regular enroll
ment. The university endowment
enjoyed gifts amounting to s166,0O0
through the wills of Jacob Lockhart,
Arthur c. Newly, Miss Estella
Birchard Turner and an anonymous
donor.
Perhaps the greatest individual
asset to the university was the re-
moval of Teachers College to the
Fairview campus. This move
brought about the long sought for
uniflcation of the three colleges of
the university under one distinct
regime.
Includes Music School
Following this adjustment the
university struck up a closer afilia-
ton with the Arthur Jordan Con-
servatory of Music, an affiliated
school, in an attempt to provide
more opportunities for students Of
both institutions. The relationship
was attained by an exchange of
professors.
Several members Of the musical
school staff were appointed to i'll
struct students on the FairvieW
campus while Butler faculty mem
bers were enlisted to teach aca-
demic subjects at the conservatory.
The increase in facilities for the
education of women students, which
has taken place on the Butler
campus recently, promoted Buffers
acceptance into the Association Of
University Women which was
granted last June. Prior to this
time Butler graduates had been
recognized only as associate mem
: bers of the organization. This fall
&ew the Inauguration Of still more
f. eilities for women in the depart-
ment of physical education.
Sports on Increase
In the sports world Butler scored
a hit last March when the first Of
the Butler indoor relays was held
in the fieldhouse. Because of the
huge success of the first relay, the
event will be an annual one and
is predicted to become the most
outstanding indoor relay in the COL
legiate world The Butler Bulldogs
also added glory when they won
the Missouri Valley basketball
championship.
AS means of providing more
facilities for students studying
journalism, a new type and me-
chanical laboratory has been set up
in the basement of the Arthur
Jordan hall. The laboratory is
known as the University Press.
The Collegian, student newspaper;
MSS, student literary magazine;
The Student Directory, and other
campus publications are printed
here. The press unit is used as a
class laboratory by the journalism
department.
New Members on Board
During the year the Butler board
of directors added three names to
the directorate The new members
are Judge Robert G. BaltzeI, Earl
Crawford. and Judge John A. Tits
worth.
Aside from academic achieve
ments, the university has also taken
an active part in relief work dur
ing the year.
The Butler university Mothers
Council was formed in May for the
purpose of raising funds with which
to aid needy Butler students More
than 10000 articles of clothing and
5000 cans of foodStuffs were con-
tributed by the student body as a
result of the Christmas cheer cam
paign held at the university last
