Title	[Title page of the 1911 Banyan]
Description	This is the title page, printed in yellow and black, of the 1911 Banyan, the first BYU yearbook of that name. It was preceded by the 1909 Fourth Year High School Album, which was of horizontal format and bound in leather. In 1912 the yearbook name changed to Mizpah, a clothbound volume, and in 1913 to BYUtah. In 1914 the name reverted back to Banyan, which has continued to the present. The name was taken from a statement by Karl G. Maeser:"When, on the 24th of April fourteen years ago, the Academy opened, with 29 students, and myself the only teacher, when the range of studies did not extend beyond the fifth grade, no one imagined that in that insignificant beginning the germ of a system had been planted which, in its gradual development, was to penetrate with its ramifications throughout all the borders of Zion, stretching its branches like a great banyan tree, as it were, far and wide."
