Originally , the Depa rtment of Al umni Affairs was located in the Trent Institute Build ing, now ca lled T rent Ha ll. [n 196 7, it a malga ma ted wi th the Deve lo pme nt Fu nd Office and moved to Ra ithby House. T he Jo hn Babcock, OAC '54.

Department's title was adj usted and the stone cottage was te mporarily named Alumni House . However, it became overcrowded a nd, in 197 4, the Depart ment moved to Level 4 of the newly constructed Uni ve rsity Centre with its printing and maili ng faciliti es on Level O. Some of you ma y recall that, in pre- nive rsity days, the south-west corner of Johnston H all was known as Commu nity Ho use and provided accommodation for visiting dignitarie . The di rector and the Development Office will be in th e former sleepin quarters on the second floor. T he Alumni O ffice (progra ms ) will be on the first flo or in the former dining room area, while the Publications Office and Support Serv ices, including alumni records, wi ll be located on the lower level in th for mer staff lounge. The Depart me nt's pri nting and ma iling faci lities will rema in in the University Centre.

On behalf of my staff and colleag ues, r extend a special invitation to visi t us in our "new" home. Your support and continued commi tment to the Universit y and alumni activiti es are grea tl y ap preciated. Sincere season's greetings 10 you all.

Let Us All Be Super Visible

We need to focu s on our initial object ive and to desig n programs and aClivities that will directly affect a ll of our a lumni.

Speak proudly of your Alma ater, of the ed ucation it ' ave you, and the opportun ities it can offer othe rs. Encou rage prospective students to consider the Universi ty of Guel ph .

39 ,000 in 85 Countries

welcome this opportunity to elttend season's greetings to each of the more than 39,000 a lumni of the U niversity of Guel ph. As much as I might like to elttend best wishes to each of you personall y, that is clearly impractical, and so I am pleased to have the opportunity to do so via the Guelph Alumnus.

In 85 countries around the globe, you carry the name of your University with you . We are proud of you, and we value the opportunity of kee ping in touch with each of you th rough the columns of the Guelph Alumnus.

In many ways, 1982 was a splendid year, but it had its disconcert ing moments too. In S eptem ber, en rol ment reached the highest figures in ou r history, with close to 11,000 undergraduates and some 97 0 graduate students.

Academic and research achievements during the year ha ve ma intained the campus's high standard, and special grants provided major new pieces of resea rch equipment to facilitate furt her accomplish ments.

At the sa me ti me, I must acknowledge that continued fina ncial restrai nts made it increasingly diffi cult to maintain the high standards for which the campus and its graduates are recogn ized. Nor do the prospects a ppear

I

encourag ing for any easing of these limitations in the immed iate future. T he continued, and increasing, support t ha t you gi ve to the Alma Ma ter Fund becomes especially important in times such as these.

Among academic developmen ts during the year, was the int roduction of

a " Co-op" option in a number of programs, a nd t he completion of plans for an eltternship progra m for senior veterinary students. Enrolment in t he B.A. program reached new highs, with 739 new students accepted in September. The large number of a pplication for B.A. studies res ulted in our raising the admission standard to 75 per cent.

The record enrolment in September saw us at, or near, the ceiling in student nu mbers in a ll our programs. We must bend every effort, however, to ma intain the quality for which Guelph has become known.

In the area of interna t ional commitment, your University has an enviable record for the nu mber and quality of its interna tional linkages.

New initiatives, undertaken duri ng the past yea r, have ensured the main tenance of ou r level of participation. We anticipate even greater opportu nities to share our teaching and researc h capabilit ies with th ose countries facin g the desperate challenge of feeding and cloth ing their own people.

Aga in, may I extend to everyone of our a lumni, and all their friends, my most si ncere best wishes for the new year.

Donald F. Forster, President, Unive rsity of Guelph .
