To what extent these outside forces sway the individual is determined to a high degree by the person to whom they are applied. The basic t raining of the student channels these forces into their proper perspective. It bridges the gap between the sheltered aca- demic life of the college-city and the numberless events, people, ideas, and philosophies of the city-world. Mold- ing the raw material — sifting and sort- ing and teaching — culminates in the fashioning of a woman exposed to, but above the cross-currents of the city. An education that reaches many cli- maxes but never ceases; an unending cycle of starts and finishes. For every twilight there ' s a dawn. DEAD END by Arthur Rapaport Courtesy of Popular Photography
