This is Ohio University. A green campus all the year round, splattered occasionally during the winter with sweeping snow. Green and white, the colors of the school. And, almost always, rain, rain, rain. But whether the sun shines or not, the chimes from Cutler Tower always remind you that this is a place of learning where all our yesterdays are taken into account today that there might be a better tomorrow. Then, once a year, the college songs from the Tower give way to the good cheer of Christmas and the evenings are filled with carols sung by hundreds of soft, sweet voices. The chimes are augmented by the song of spring when the flowers bloom, the trees turn green once more and the campus green is filled with students enjoying the warmth of the sun. Finally, the year ends and the graduates depart to take their places in the world. 1955 ATHENA OHIO UNIVERSITY • ATHENS • OHIO

■ v 4 w f Lilting Memories Music set the mood on the campus this year: serious, soft, lively, melodious, in- spiring. George Shearing, Woody Herman, Fred Waring, the glee clubs, the choirs, the orchestras, the dances. Jazz, sym- phonies, marches, spirituals, carols, con- certos, you name it. And the music of yes- terday, today and tomorrow, summed up in the Musical Omnibus, which featured songs from The Green Adventure, the Civil War times, the Gay Nineties and the two world wars.
