Transcript	1963-64 ... a school year ... an academic year ... a fun year ... a working year ... a changing year ... a new era. Once the University of Houston was thought of as 'that school down on Cullen Blvd./ but today this concept has changed. UH is in the center of the largest city in the Southwest. With an enrollment of 17,400 now, it is the second largest in the state. This fall 19,000 are expected. With the final arrival of full STATE ASSISTANCE the university has started to realize its full potential. One building after another has begun its climb to the sky. A new Chemistry-Pharmacy building and the Religion Center have foundations laid and steel beams secured. Plans for the University Center and Engineering Building are complete. Parking lots have become a must to the student and so has his survival while crossing campus streets. The growth of organizations on campus has surpassed that of any year. The feeling that one must do / / his part for the growth of the university is evident throughout the campus. A national contender in every athletic endeavor, the university has asked to be a part of the Southwest Conference. The Board of Regents has announced that in the fall of 1965 the new home football field will be the world famous Domed Stadium. The student legislature changed its form of government from bicameral to the "more efficient" unicameral system. The Interdisciplinary Club sponsored the first university academic festival—Controvesy '64—which proved to be more than just groovy. Students who dwelled here this year have felt a sense of destiny—they have been a part of an historic event. A whole new chapter has begun for the University of Houston.
