This 1951 Olio records the varied facets of life on the Amherst campus during the academic year 1950-51. In some ways this is a unique year-the only normal one between the readjustments after World War II and the new adjustments that are going to have to be made as a result of the onset of the Korean crisis. For the first time, every class on the campus had enjoyed the opportunities offered by the new curriculum and for the first time since 1942, all students could be divided into four classes without making allowances for odd semesters. As a sample of what postwar normality might well have been, these pages may well have a permanent even if slightly nostalgic interest. Zim. za-ZQQQ Page Fifteen
