Wife: It has been kind of you to hear us out. Feed us just a bit more rope and we’d lasso you for hours with idle reminiscences: how the registrar scheduled five classes in a single room, how professor X almost lost his pants when his belt broke, how Suzy Q. slipped in the dorm at 4 a.m., that sort of thing. | think we’ve tried to say what the spirit was, as best we understand. Is there some reaction on your part? Senior: I’m squinting through you to a time ahead; I’m guessing | might come back as you have, | well may speak “‘in spirit’’ just like you. Whatever starts here with a class and grows until | seek a mastery, a wisdom of it, well, I’m bound to feel some gratitude. But right now I’m hung up on the differences, those social things. 17

Freshman Woman: Even if | get all A’s, | don’t think Stanford Law School will admit me anyway. Mr. ’70 has got a nerve | lack. Sophomore Man: That old rah-rah stuff’s long gone.

I've known some graduates of those. | don’t say they got no benefit from Name. | won't say we fell so far to less, however. Ah, what might have been is such a futile speculation. | think of what a prof of mine once quoted: | think it was More, Utopia: “‘He that hath no grave is covered with the sky and the way to heaven out of all places is of like length and distance.” Wife: Hmm, I'll try to remember that one. 70: Yeah, yeah, that’s what | think all the time. Sophomore Man: You say you got some inspiration here, - but would you pledge some money or your time to save this institution in a pinch? Alums sing: We're here today, Alumni Day, to let time pass until our class Reunion! For that we’ll pay And see. We may hello and run, but if we stay, when all is done, our left hand rueth to blurt and say what right hand doeth. Sing Reunion! Junior Woman: Crazy. Even Mr. ’70 rah-rah’s with ’em. | reckon there really is a Southwestern mystique that’s got ’em all.
