Books, books, and more books. Lines, lines, and more linesf' 8 For each person, the business of higher education is a different experience, but inevitably, as each student nears his graduation day, certain impressions have left an indelible mark on his mind and character. These exp- eriences make a permanent impact, consciously or sub- consciously, in the growth of his personality. Take, for instance, that initial feeling of insignifi- cance when one first enters a dormitory-a multitude milling around-New Yorkers, Yankees, Southerners, and students from distant lands. All are thrown togeth- er in odd combinations, but they call each other groom- matef, Registration is more of the same . . . unfamiliar faces -lines, lines, and more lines, forms, forms, and more forms-odd and new words: bursar, S.P.R.C., horarium, and proctor. In class, one finds himself being referred 'to as Mis- ter', rather than by his more familiar first name. Books are required . . . many, many books . . . and again, lines, lines, and more lines. The class hours seem odd at first-eight o'clock class- es, one class on Tuesday, five classes on Friday, and no- body to get you up in the morning! Yet, one is not com- pletely independent. Factors such as curfew, overcut- ting, and meals at specified times, restrain the student who is overzealous in his newly found independence. Soon, some of the novelty of college life wears OH, but if one is alert, unafraid, and desirous of education in its broadest sense, he continually finds college life filled with wonder.
