ALF HARBO OLE HAUKENESS EDWIN PAULSON Junior Class It may rightly be said that the Junior year is the most crucial in the career of an undergraduate. Two years of difficult laboring with arbitrary, definitely outlined subjects have prepared him for the change which he finds in his cur- riculum when he enters this class. Previously he has been held to absolute and initiative subjects; now he suddenly finds himself in a new environment where originality and spontaneity are engendered and fostered. 11 is vision becomes broader, his aspirations soar higher. In a word, he commences to find himself. Such, indeed, has been the experience of the Junior class. Their number iias been small, but, may it be said to their honor, fifty per cent of their class can be found following the colors. Those in the camps arc realizing the significance of life; those remaining behind are preparing themselves so that they may be able to cope with life’s problems when they confront them.

The college course should be so, that the young man who begins college work, may feel that now he is at a place where efforts are being made to make him a better man, more cap- able of doing his duties in life. 1 It; should be led to feel that life is earnest, and that lie is placed in the world for the purpose of developing his character and serving humanity. These efforts are being made at Augsburg. And tliis is why we are glad to be here. Though we meet many difficulties in solving the many problems of the various courses of study, yet we enjoy the obstacles. It is our hope that we, as we progress, may keep the right spirit, because then we know that our work will be of value to ourselves and those with whom we come in contact. PAGE TWENTY-SEVEN
