University of Virginia Library

Martin Evans

Mr. Evans, former president of
the Student Council, wound up the
program by answering the question
"Why are you here?" "We are
working to make this school a
better University, this state a better
state," he replied.

Mr. Evans cited a two-pronged
attempt, educational and political,
to end the "continuing administrative
inactivity - not bias, but
inactivity. Assemblies like this
one," he explained, "serve to
educate our society into the needs
of this University, to explain what
can be done, and how it can be
done."
