I hen came the unforgettable Freshman-Sophomore d.mee with its Autumn Howl theme. Everyone was gay and happy. Autumn leaves, school pennants, goal posts, and the large football surrounded by yellow chrysanthemums— our spirits soared high.

A lump in our throats took the place ot the happy feeling we usually had when we were with them— lor we knew graduation was not too Far off. And finally— the big day! We carried the daisy chain for our Big Sisters— and later proudly watched them march down the aisle to receive their well-earned diplomas.

The badminton, tennis, and archery games in the spring when the blustering wind blew our carefully-aimed shots off their course? Or the hilarious fun of folk dancing, and the scram- bled melee of the volleyball and basketball games? No, we answer promptly; these things we ' ll never forget.

PRACTICAL: While pursuing courses leading toward the A.B. or B.M. degree, stu- dents may secure prevocational training leading toward dietetics, nursing, laboratory technique, medicine, library science, social service, church work, home making, and so forth. Opportunity is afforded students to qualify for Class-A Teachers ' Certificates in Primary, Grammar Grade, and High School fields. Greensboro College through a long period of years has rendered outstanding service to the educational needs of this State. — CLYDE A. Erwin, Lute State Superintendent of Public Instruction. PROGRESSIVE: Rich in traditions of over a century. Regular liberal arts curriculum adapted and enriched in line with modern world conditions. DISTINCTIVE: Emphasizing not size but quality, Greensboro College is small enough for personal contacts and close friendships and big enough for variety and breadth of culture. Beautiful campus dotted with tall pines, stately oaks, and sturdy elms, with ivy-clad buildings modernized and homelike. CHRISTIAN: Although not sectarian, Greensboro College rests frankly and firmly upon religious morals and moral and religious sanctions. I have heard of Greensboro College since my childhood. I have been acquainted with a large company of its alumnae. I have observed its work through many years. It maintains a noble Christian atmosphere and genuine scholastic standards. — Bishop Costen J.
