C aTT ACADEMIA He frothed his bumpers to the brim A jollier year we shall not see. But though his eyes are waxing dim, and though his foes speak- ill of him. He was a friend to me. Old year, you shall not die: We did so laugh and cry with you, I ' ve half a mind to die with you. Old year, if you must die. Alfred Tennyson How very well doth yon poet sum up our feelings upon reaching the end of this year. We dedicate this page to another bustling, culture laden year in the halls of Academia. It is a common misconception among those far removed from the ivied walls of a college that the intellectual is being replaced on the modern campus by the technician, the bureaucrat, and the illiterate button pusher. This is surely not the case at OSC. Here, students not only take an intense interest in their classes, but utilize every available moment of time. They engage themselves in staunch intel- lectual pursuits; for hard work is the watchword, and OSC students do an infinite amount of watching. Take, for example, the three enter- prising young students at the left. Notice the sheer vigor in which they apply their available moments. Engaging in intellectual pursuits can only be accomplished by strengthening our knowledge and finding new cultural experiences. We must continue, as one might say, to meet our little cultural friends. Many of our nice instructors have volunteered their lunch hours during the past year, to bring culture to the students. Grateful students have labeled these sessions the golden hours. They are eagerly attended. At right, a professor reads a thrilling Eliza- bethan sonnet as an enraptured group of stu- dents listen attentively. Notice the intense con- centration of these enraptured students. For each of us there will be a time when we reach the final spring of Academia and go forth from the college campus with a staunch education in our minds and holes in our pockets. We leave the college and its warm memories and prepare ourselves for the cruel world out- side. Here we see a picture (left) of a senior preparing for that big leap into the world around him. 23

Who ' s Who In American Colleges . . . Another honor that distinguished OSC ' s first year on the new campus was the 33 outstanding students who were elected for notional recogni- tion in Who ' s Who In American Colleges and Universities. The purpose of Who ' s Who is to afford recognition for outstanding upper-division stu- dents on a national basis, and to provide a practical go-between for employers and gradu- ating students. Student committee members moke their selec- tions on the basis of scholarship, citizenship-, leadership, participation in campus activities, and general service to the college community. Elected but not pictured here ore: Richard Robinson; Jean Dennis; Saundra Mathews; Paul Samson; Colman Windisch; Thomas Williamson; Terrence George; Sharon Buckridge; Linda Beckert, and Peter Conaty. 24
