Symbol Of Wesleyan Spirit TraSTl e went through the months of mud ilifl and wet c a y dinging ° our boots as IHMall we met our classes on the new campus — but we were so thankful to be in the beauti¬ ful new buildings and the same Wesleyan spirit came with us.” Elizabeth Blalock ’29 If the Spirit of Wesleyan could ever be limit¬ ed to a particular place, that place would be the fountain. A memorial of Alpha Delta Pi, the campus site has lost its sorority association ex¬ cept for the annual Mercer visit. Now it is the scene of eleven O’clock pep rallies, engage¬ ment celebrations (dunkings), weekend picnics, concerts, and quiet thinking. This year, the fifti¬ eth anniversary pep rally was a big event.

Center Of Campus Life he majesty of its marble columns ena¬ mored me. ” Dixie Jones, ’32 “Meet me on the loggia” are familiar words to every Wesleyanne. Here we register, sing homecoming songs, part with dates, and line up for graduation. ti e PLACES he College of Liberal Arts, which for nearly a hundred years had occupied the imposing buildings in the heart of the city, has been removed to a new and magni¬ ficent campus adorned with twelve splendid buildings finished in brick and marble in the immediate suburbs of Macon. The coming thou¬ sands of young women who will crowd this beautiful campus and these spacious halls will “carry on” as their sisters of former genera¬ tions have done. Such an institution offers a mighty challenge to women of high purpose. Tomorrow must be better than today.” William F. Quillian, ’28 Since Dr. Quillian’s opening remarks, many women have made their college years here a valuable time of personal development, intel¬ lectual growth, and social maturity. Our private memories of Wesleyan will always be attached to the places we each frequent — the practice rooms, the tennis courts, the library, the labs, the snack bar, the lake. But in every activity, we realize that we are part of the greater com¬ munity — a campus which offers opportunities for self-expression, leadership, and learning.

Places For Eating And Meeting 1 e ate family style on linen table cloths with a faculty member at the head of each table.” Margaret Garnett Harris, ’30 No other room on campus provides us a chance to meet each other on a regular basis like the Anderson Dining Hall. While we don’t dress formally, meals are still great occasions and the food is good. In the same building, the Hinton Lounge is a more formal meeting place for clubs and events.
