Illinois Wesleyan University Bloomington, Illinois, Wednesday, May 19, 1954 President Holmes Suggests Three-Fold Five-Year Plan In a report to the Joint Board of Trustees and official visitors, President Merrill J. Holmes stat-ed that Wesleyan is in a period of growing pains. These growing pains are a direct result of a larger attendance. The president went further to say that the larger attendance will be perma-nent. He stressed the importance of keeping the quality of work and of student population on a high level, and not merely thinking in terms of quantity. To do this he proposed three-fold five-year plan which would include the following: 1. Additional educational plant, already planned.. 2. Additional housing facilities, to which question the Executive Committee has been giving at-tention. Ten Sophomores Chosen For Green Medallion Green Medallion, IWU's sopho-more honorary organization, held initiation for new members last Wednesday, May 12, at 5:00 p.m. in the Faculty Lounge at Memo-rial Center. Members are chosen on the 3. Some increase in faculty per-sonnel, but more particularly increase in the faculty salary budget, which matter has been receiving the attention of a special committee. The first step of providing ad-ditional buildings has been taken by the erection of William Ed-ward Shaw Academic Hall, which will be ready for use when school opens in the fall of 1954. Hous-ing facilities are under consid-eration, and a new men's dorm is being considered. The faculty is being increased in number and the salary scale of the teaching staff is being raised. President Holmes stressed the fact that the University must keep thinking in terms of quality of work and of student popula-tion, and not simply quantity. Of interest to the students will be the information that this has been a better year in academic performance than the preceding two or three years, two evidences of which are a better campus spirit generally and fewer stu-dents who were academic cas-ualties. Commission Selects Publications Chiefs In a recent meeting of the Publications Commission of Stu-dent Union, the head offices of publications were named for the school year 1954-1955. Dave Gilbert was named Edi-tor- in-Chief of the Argus for next year. His co-assistant edi-tors are "Bud" Kronsagen, for-mer sports editor, and John Copeland, a. transfer from the University of Illinois, who has done excellent work on the paper since he has been on campus. The business manager is Joan Harner, Who has been doing a fine job with the ads this semes-ter. Her assistant is Don Doug-las. Ellie Pray has been named edi-tor of the Wesleyana. She served as assistant editor of the publi-cation this semester and did a lot of work on it. Dick Huffman, who put in some long hours working on the book this year, is her assistant editor.
