College of Arts and Sciences IN this College the discordant buzzing of machinery is never heard, nor is there danger of being shocked by coining into contact with unexpected live wires. The transit, plow and pick are but slightly known. They who wander t hrougli its enchanted vales, who drink from its fountains of truth and wisdom, who arc fanned by the gentle zephyrs of poetry and romance, and who commune with the unforgotten dead will look back with pleasure u| on the many happy days s|M nt roving through the hallowed regions, and with an ever-increasing love for its mystic hordes.
