Messenger - Vol. 1, No. 1, Page 2 Fall 1991 New University logo celebrates proud past, exciting future Greetings! I hope you enjoy reading all the news in this new publication for alumni and friends. The Messenger is a name recognized by many friends of the University of Delaware, and it is impressive to read of the individual and institutional accomplishments reported on these pages. I draw your attention to the special insert included in this issue-The Report of Private Support. This insert details a banner year for fundraising, and it chronicles commitment by many, many alumni, friends, students, parents, faculty and staff, as well as numerous foundations and corporations. To all who gave generously, I offer sincere thanks on behalf of the University of Delaware. We will dedicate our efforts to being an institution that well deserves your continuing support and the support of many additional friends and alumni. As we begin the 1991-92 academic year, I hope many of you will be able to visit the campus. You will notice something new. We're celebrating. Celebrating all that comprises the University of Delaware. Celebrating what's new and exciting about this University, evident through numerous ongoing and just-completed construction and renovation projects, as well as what's been nurtured and valued for nearly 250 years-a proud tradition. One very visible part of this celebration is a new University logo-the UD, popularized over the years by the University of Delaware Marching Band. The new University logo, designed by Monroe Givens, Delaware '75, is now beginning to appear on Bookstore merchandise, University stationery, signs, shuttle buses and more. The most visible display is the bright blue and gold banners sporting the new logo extending down South College Avenue. I hope you're able to come visit your University this academic year and to join in our celebration. Thank you for your continuing support. Best wishes, David P. Roselle President
