I t gives me particular pleasure to be able to announce at this point that exploratory discussions w i th the School of Oriental and African Studies in the University of L o n d on have now resulted in an agreement in principle on a number of steps to be taken, the first of wh i ch w i ll be a f o rm of interchange of faculties and in due course also of research scholars. As you may know, the School is going to celebrate its Golden Jubilee next year and its director, Professor C . H. Philips, is one of our four overseas members on the University Council. Arrangements of the same nature are also being worked out w i th St. Antony's College of Ox f o rd University, the University of British Columbia, and Yale University, W i l l i am College and Da r t mo u th College. Inter-University co-operation is vital to the development of T he Chinese University, and present s great challenges to our faculty members and students. On their behalf, I wou l d like to express our deep appreciation of the co-operation that the University of California extends to us. May it grow and prosper in the years to come to the lasting benefits of both of our universities.
