Gross Class History ITHIX our grasp lies the goal which lias required four long years V TT of earnest toil and endeavor for us to attain — graduation. As we VV reflect upon the events of mutual interest which transpired dur- ing these years of association, memory reveals many things we might have done but failed to do. however, any regrets that would seek a place in our reminiscences are soon put to flight by the remembrance of noble achievements accomplished, of battles fought andvictories won. In our life as a class we have encountered many obstacles in our road to advancement. Ere we had ceased to reflect the youthful collegians ' custom- ary verdancy, we began to advocate progress. Even as in the world where the author of new movements has invariably been subjected to unjust criti- cism, so have we often been the object of censure and undue antagonism when we attempted the introduction of new principles in college life. Nevertheless, we have never deviated from our early progressive ideas, and as we pass out from the loved portals of our Alma Mater, our prayer is that we may have done somi ' ig during our short stay here which will in a measure compen- sate our collt ;.e for the countless opportunities she has given us. Upon our ent into college we boasted of a class thirty in number — one of the largest that ever entered this institution. Unfortunately, four years of varied experiences have brought with them a changing personnel in class roll, so that as we near our Commencement of life ' s work we find but twenty- five members rallying around our chosen standards. As Freshmen we decided to keep before us continually the motto. Abeunt studia in mores. Now, as a graduating class we feel certain that the high standard of intellectuality which we have maintained throughout our college course is but a criterion to the type of character which our life of daily asso- ciation has fostered in us. Indeed, the class of 1915 has assisted materially in raising the standards of many college activities. Our contribution to ath- letics, oratory, music and science will be remembered long after we have been lost in life ' s busy malestrom. Happy have been the days which constituted our sojourn here. But an- other day is fast approaching: a day when we must meet as a class for the last time: when we separate to go forth in the world, each as a live power, for o-ood ' or evil. May our standard of excellence continue to advance! May our future history be a record of noble deeds and charitable actions! Page Twenty-nine
