THE COLUMNS 1968 Athens College Athens, Alabama The curriculum is designed to provide for a well-rounded liberal arts education with concentra- tion in a particular field. The curriculum comprises the branches of the tree. The extra-curricular activities are the leaves of the college tree. Whether in the area of student government, Greek social organizations, athletics, departmental or special interest clubs, or student publications, each student is given the opportunity to participate and to grow in the college commu- nity and to add to the number of leaves on the tree. The student body of Athens College forms the tree trunk. Just as each year adds a ring of growth to the tree, so does each year add to the number of stu- dents who have been a part of Athens College. At times growth has been slow, but in recent years the rings have become larger and larger un- til 1 100 students are included in this year ' s ring. The faculty and staff comprise the roots of Athens College. The student is dependent on the food provided by the faculty to grow intellectually. This nourish- ment is obtained not only in the classroom but in associations outside the classroom as well. One of the greatest advantages of a small col- lege is the close relationship between faculty and student, and Athens College is a small college. It is in Athens and its citizens that Athens Col- lege has its taproots. For almost 150 years, the col- lege has drawn support and aid from this source. Without this assistance, encouragement and good wishes, the college could never have main- tained its record of being open continuously since its founding in 1822, for without the taproots the tree would surely fall. And it is to you Athens — to your people — to whom we dedicate the 1968 Columns. 111 III Sometimes it ' s the professor . . . doing the work. ... or building a float for a Christmas parade.

Work may be on a new dormitory .... ... or tryouts for cheerleaders, which is fun, too. Scenes of AC Play — a pastime affording relaxation and enjoyment. This means that play at Athens covers a broad scope, including almost every facet of college life. The Death Scene from Our Town. Point!! There was no joy in Athens.

It may be total relaxation or just a quiet pause between the periods of mad rush that are a part of the college way of life. Sometimes the rest is enforced. UPter- 14 Page Sponsor: MR. MRS. ALEXANDER M. POST, Philadelphia, Pa. Rest may mean the quiet of the campus at night. It may be relaxing before an important basketball game. Even machines rest occasionally. Page Sponsor: MRS.

TO EACH HIS OWN- His own task, his own friends, his own opportunity. One of our alumni recently said, Athens College is a good place to go to school. And then he added after being asked to explain: Athens College is a curious mixture. It ' s a combination of the quiet and energetic. It ' s part academic and part social. While I was there I felt free to question everything about society, but somehow I was always reminded of the fundamental values of our culture. I think I would want my son to get that kind of an education. We engage in a constant effort to provide a mixture of all that is valuable in the educational experience — to provide you with a chance to find your own philosophy, your own task, your own friends and your own opportunity. The challenge is up to you! One must always search to find anything that is rewarding! AAay each of you find here that you have begun the search. -« A ,(?L; Frank N.
