WALKER, Director, Chapel Hill, N. C, THE UNIVERSITY'S WAR-TIME RECORD The record of the University of North Carolina in the world war is one of which every North Carolinian can feel justly proud. From the first call to arms in April, 1917, until the signing of the Armistice in Novem ber, 1918, the University sent her sons in an almost continuous stream towards the training camps and France. : During this period, accord ing to the information received by the University Registrar, more than 2,300 University alumni and students have donned the khaki and the blue and entered the service of their country. Out of this number there were three Brigadier Generals, ten Colonels, seven Lieut-Colonels, thirty-four Ma jors, ninty-two Captains, two hun dred and seventy-four First Lieuten ants, three hundred and eighty Sec ond Lieutenants, six Chaplains, twelve Y. M. C. A. workers, and a number of officers of varied ranks in the naval service. Many members of the faculty for sook the classroom to hurry to train ing camps, while some volunteered for government work on expert war boards. The Commencement of 1917, with Secretaries Daniels and Baker present, was the most patriotic in the history of the institution. University Answers the Call The call to arms in April of 1917, found military training on the Uni versity campus in full swing with a steadv exodus of students and alumni to the training camps which conjinu- ed unabated until hostilities ended m Europe. Over 250 alumni and stu- ueilLS rusllcu w uie msi uumis training camp. At the same time the University in telligently listed and classified its stu dents and alumni and unselfishly of fered its manpower and resources to the government. War Extension Service Rut.. th TIniversitv was not merely content to serve its students in this nnfinnnl crisis, sn the Bureau of Ex tension, reincnized as affording: the most offective means of reaching the mass ot the people oi tne estate, adapted itself to war needs. A war educational service, center ing around study centers, lectures, .correspondence courses, war informa tion leaflets, etc., was established whose chief function was to make clear American aims, purposes and ideals in relation to the world war. The TTniveraitv believed that im- nnrfnrt 9 organization was. and all forms of directly helpful co-operation with the government in raising men i . i J J and money ana assisting m iooa anu fuel conservation, its chief service in its war relations and its unique ser vice as an American institution was in the field of education. With this in view University pro fessors were sent to all parts of the State wherever the demand arose to discuss the underlying causes of the war and America s part in relation to it. War study centers were estab lished in many towns throughout the State and special lecturers were sent to other localities throughout the State to arouse the patriotic fervor of the people. The Result The result in brief is that over 100,000 people have heard lectures on war subjects by members of the Uni versity faculty; more than 75,000 war information leaflets have reached North Carolina homes; the war edi tions of the University News Letter have increased to 15,000 weekly; and the war study centers organized last spring have enjoyed a membership of 600. The University Union The next step of the University was to enroll as a member of the Ameri can University Union in Europe that Carolina men at the front might be reached, helped and enabled to keep in close touch with Alma Mater. Through this connecting link the special facilities of the Union with its headquarters at Paris, London and Rome, were put at the service of the University men who happened to be in these places. Training on the Campus Many more University alumni and students entered the service during the summer of 1917. The Plattsburg Summer Camp was well represented by University men. The opening of the 1917-18 session found organized military training in iuu swing on tne campus, directed by Capt. J. Stuart Allen, who was assisted by J. V. Whitfield and Jono than Leonard. Some 600 students voluntarily took the course of instruction regularly which consumed about twelve hours per week. Eight faculty members al so took the course. War Department Approves From the start the work of the University battalion won the highest sort of commendation and approval from those who visited the drill field. Early in May of the last year the War Department called on the Uni versity for all eligible members of the senior class who desired to attend officers' camps. The first official recognition of the University's militant training came early in June of 1918 when the gov ernment designated the University as a Reserve officers' Training Corps. Recognition was further extended in July, when 125 students and facul ty members were appointed by the government through the University to attend the Plattsburg training camp for a period of 60 days. Of this num ber 60 were commissioned at the end of the course, September 16. A Summer War Activities Continued The elaborate scheme of prepared ness thus inaugurated was continued during the past summer. The .Uni- versity's military training camp at Asheville, under the directions of Capt. J. Stuart Allen, extending through a period of six weeks, was attended by 125 high school and col lege students and was judged highly successful. The work of the six weeks' Summer School, under the direction of Dr. N. W. Walker, took on a war-time slant. Many new courses designated to train the teachers specially for war needs were introduced for the first time. The University S. A. T. C. Through the operation of an order issued by the Wjar Department on August 24, the University along with 500 other institutions of the collegiate grade, become a unit of the Students' Army Training Corps. The late president Graham was ap pointed by the committee on educa tion and special training at Washing ton as regional director of the S. A. T. C. for the South Atlantic States. Upon this basis the University was converted into a military camp, the dormitories into barracks, the din ing hall into a mess hall, and every one of the 700 students in round numbers inducted into, the S. A. T. C. on October first became soldiers of the United States Army, with the reg ular discipline and pay of privates. The Y. M. C. A. assumed the func tion of an Army hut, with Secretary W. R. Wunsch in charge, and the general program of the University conformed to strict military require ments. Students Liberally Support The students not only offered their services to the government, but were ready with their money. In all the Y. M. C. A., Liberty Loan campaigns, and War Stamp and War Work drives the khaki boys gave whole-heartedly and unreservedly according to their means. In many cases the contri butions represented real sacrifices. The Faculty in Service From the start to the finish twenty seven members of the faculty, past and present, have donned the uniform and J. Henry Johnson, of the depart ment of Education, has made the su preme sacrifice overseas. Many other members of faculty were engaged in government war work during their vacations and all were busily engaged in the work of the S. A. T. C. here. The record of the alumni, faculty, and students in civil service is one to be proud of. No call has gone unheed ed for a moment. And every mem ber of these three groups from Sec retary Daniels of the Navy, down to the latest contributor of the war work fund, has responded without stint, or limit.
