L Cf)e 1936 TBull SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On the morning of September 19. 1932, F-amo and Fortune opened their portals to the faces of seventy-five courageous lads, whose eager, beaming eyes sought the Registrars Office and its registration service. These young men. each with a recently awarded high school diploma safely tucked under his arm, had come from far and near in response to the vibrant knock of Opportunity upon the veiled door of Education. All during the day they continued to come and to join arms with those natural anxieties, seasoned with current expectation and college fever, had sent them to the campus many hours in advance of the designated time for regis- tration. Thus entered the class of 1936. eager from its beginning, upon the pages of the history of Johnson C. Smith University. Behind this class lay twelve years of previous training, ahead of it lay four years of anticipation, in its immediate path by brilliant records of many a prosperous Alumnus, as well as the history of some who were just ordinary. All these things were signal impressions upon the plastic minds of nearly four score college freshmen. The first official gathering followed on the 2 1st of September, at which time Professor R. L. Douglass. The Campus Philosopher. Mrs. H. L. McCrorey. and Dr. H. L. McCrorey, President of the Institution, welcomed the new students to the University and unveiled a huge block of educational marble, from which they were commissioned to carve a beautiful figure of mental, physical, and spiritual achievement. As each student stood and introduced himself, it is to be doubted whether he. or any of the older students and faculty members to whom he spoke fully realized that the institution into which he had enrolled was starting on a new era. With the Class of ' 3b. there came to the College the first regularly enrolled women students, whose Junior College work had been done at Barber Scotia Junior College. There were no co eds in the class, however, until its third season. Several weeks after its entrance, the class met to elect officers, and after many a piece of oratorical brilliance. Isaiah P. Pogue was selected to lead the class over its first milestone on experience, Charles 1.. Hamilton was chosen to write notes, and T. English Wilson was designated to keep the treasury of the class. With this leadership, the class moved forward at an alarming pace. All of the major organizations, with the exception of the Greek Letter Fraternities, held represen tatives of this class. At the end of the first semester, seven members had been placed on the scholastic honor roll, and at the end of the first year, at least one member had achieved a semester A average. Although heterogeneous from the beginning, the class functioned as a complete unit until late March of the first year. At this time came pledging to the various Greek Letter Fraternities, and the result was evident in four distinct factions, growing more distant every moment. Before a state of complete distraction was reached, the first milestone was reached, and the summer vaca- tion brought relief to the situation. In the fall of 1933. most of the original class returned. With them came a slightly larger assortment of women students, who like the first, entered the Junior Class. After three months of absence, factional differences were forgotten and again a seance was assembled to call leaders Page Tu. ' entii-three
