S. enio Left to Right: George Kent, retary; Margery Kitchen, vice-presidei The Seniors of this year have the distinction of being the first graduating class that entered college after the close of World War II. When they entered Franklin in September, 1945, they probably thought that the clock would be turned back to pre-war years and that college life would have the stamp of the 1930 ' s or earlier years. That expectation has not been fulfilled, however, as the last four years have woven an entirely new pattern in education not only at Franklin but in schools all over the nation. The warp and the woof of the pattern have followed the stand- ard traditions the college ideals of Christianity and culture have been worked into the lives and char- acters of the student body so that, fundamentally, a Franklin college man or woman is still essentially the same well-trained, high-principled young person that his predecessor of twenty years ago took pride in being. But the details of the pattern are new and remark- able! The years since 1945 have been marked by an unusually high enrollment, particularly of men stu- dents, former G. I ' s. This group has not lowered the scholastic standard of the college as some people pre- dicted it would do. On the contrary, with its maturity and experience it has brought a sober approach and an adult understanding to the class room that has sometimes made it difficult for the recent teen-age high-school graduate to keep up in his work. Other inevitable results of the G. I. influx have been numerous student marriages with their attendant problems of housing and baby rearing. As on cam- puses all over the country from the enormous state universities to the smallest denominational schools, many young men students lull their offspring to sleep with the pounding of typewriter keys while their wives hang out white rectangles or squares or iron dainty little garments in the small trailer apartments that the students call home. Many members of this class have already gained entrance to graduate schools where they intend to further their educational pursuits; many will go out with their A. B. sheepskins tucked under their arms to seek jobs. Although the paths of these young men and women will be numerous and varied, they will have o ne common objective — to use their education to the best advantage and this objective will have had its roots right here in Franklin College. Contrary to the opinion of most graduating classes, the 49 ' ers admit that they have not been the best group ever; nor do they expect to be so con- sidered, but they do claim to be well rounded individ- uals; they even agree that perhaps they have not studied as much as they should have and have played a little too much. Particularly during the past year, however, the spirit of the students of Franklin Col- lege seems to have reached a new height of enthusi- asm, an aim that this year ' s graduates have conscienc- iously strived to bring about. They leave their beloved Alma Mater with the hope that the classes to come will build up an even greater loyalty and devotion to the Blue and Gold.
