<br />JU.LO <br /> <br />would like, first of all to make some <br />announcements and introduce anybody he'd <br />care to. Bill has been anxious that we <br />come over here and we've been anxious to come <br />again. It is a delightful time of the year <br />and we've been looking forward to being here <br />for some time. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Bill, it's a pleasure to be here and <br />would you like to introduce the guests <br />here?tl <br /> <br />MR.

Just last week we <br />started our existence as a degree granting <br />institution. Some of you know the history of <br />the college perhaps better than I do. But we <br />have a great deal of enthusiasm among the <br />students and the faculty - we have a brand <br />new program and it is felt in the history of <br />higher education that if anyone has just a <br />wonderful opportunity, we have it at Ft.
