Show A Vision of the Future Weber College Is Your College BECAUSE It is an accredited, recognized, growing institution, rooted in the pioneer character that made your State, and in the philosophy that envisions education for all the people. It is a college continuously taking shape, as your needs determine its character. Your personal and social needs, and those of your community, create and define its courses, inspire and perpetuate its programs. It provides for your personal instructional needs by limiting the sizes of classes and giving opportunity for your individual attention. It encourages your maximum social growth by fostering a friendly campus spirit and a rich program of out-of-class activities. It plans for your education at relatively low cost, and for your employment counselor, if you need him, to help you find part-time work, as he has helped hundreds of students before you. You may have other needs. Read this catalogue, addressed to you, a prospective student, and visit the College where your further needs may be considered, where guidance may be given, and plans made by the College for your future. The Future Weber College Is Yours BECAUSE- Your community is building the future College. The people of Ogden City through their united efforts are developing the new campus. Landscape and building architects, after a year of study, have completed a long-range plan for the new campus; and the lower part of the campus is now being drained, graded, and landscaped. Roads have been surveyed and are now being built into the campus. The Ogden Rotary Club is erecting a $25,000 memorial gateway at the main entrance and the Ogden Kiwanis Club is buying trees and shrubs to beautify the landscape. The new stadium, provided for in the master plan, is under construction and should be ready for use in the fall of 1950. Such continued support gives the College substantial basis for believing that funds may be secured for erecting the much-needed new buildings that an expanding community and growing student population require. Through the united efforts of the people of Box Elder, Morgan, Davis, and Weber Counties, and support from all of Utah, the 1949 State Legislature passed a bill to establish at Weber College a four-year program in education, arts and sciences, and business. Although the bill failed to become a law, the State now generally recognizes the need for upper division work in this area and will undoubtedly satisfy the need for the community and the students of Weber College. Henry Aldous Dixon President of Weber College. |
