Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Address of Regent J. B. Reinstein: At a Special Meeting of the Regents of the University of California for the Purpose of Suggesting and Discussing Matters Necessary to the Prosperity of the University, Jan, 15, 1898
If I ask the attention of the Board before those whose years, experience and judgment entitle them to be first heard, it is not because I do not fully appreciate that fact, but solely because this meeting having been called largely at my suggestion it may fairly be expected that I should show some reason why your time and attention are taken from other important duties; and if I trespass upon your patience beyond the usual limits there may be some warrant therefor in the fact that all compelling duties will force me soon to forego those opportunities to advance the welfare of the State and its University through this office of Regent, which make this office the dearest hope in the life of every alumnus.
