The group holds an annual reunion on campus and inducts the “honor class,” or class which graduated 50 years ago. This year’s honor class, the Class of ’32, was represented by about 115 alumni at the reun ion, which began Monday. It ends today with a farewell breakf ast at which the chairman of the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents, H.R. “Bum” Bright of Dallas, will speak. Tuesday’s banquet also fea tured a performance by the Singing Cadets. Vandiver’s 20-minute address was frequently punctu ated with applause. He said that the University had changed a great deal in the last 50 years, but that the change was neces sary. “Now you may say, ‘It isn’t like it was when I was here.’ That’s right, it isn’t,” Vandiver said. “The fact that it’s not is one of the ways that it’s paid you back for all the care and love that you’ve lavished on it. “It’s grown, it’s changed, and it has not only kept up with mod ern times, this place has done something different... you don’t have to worry about whether this University is on the cutting edge of science and learning — it is.” One area in which the Univer- sity has not changed, he said, is in the spirit and values with which it imbues its students. “The values here, I think, would please you,” Vandiver said. “This University is con cerned about citizenship, about turning out good citizens and you know I think ... this Univer sity can probably say we have turned out one heck of a lot of grand citizens. “We’re still turning out peo- plewhocare about each other.” Affirmative Action workshop slated for Thursday, Friday by Joe Tindel Jr. Battalion Reporter An Affirmative Action work shop dealing with equal oppor tunity in the IDHOs is scheduled from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Thursday and Friday in 504 Rudder.
