PROLOGUE A student's life is creative. Tangible products of the art student, intellectual growth of the Phi Beta, campus journalism of the publications people, bonds of friendship of dorm and campus life, theological maturity of the LSA'er, are evidences and signs of the maturing and growing student. Symbols of creativity are on every campus. Usually they are not considered symbols, students are not conscious of the fluxing world around them, nor, often of the tangible evidences of their own growth until they are forceably called to their attention. Old Main is a classroom building. But if one realizes the many times that a picture of Old Main is used to illustrate a story about the campus, he will see that Old Main epitomizes College Life-its history, its academic intentions, and the durability of educa- tion. The 1961 ROCKETY-I is not only a record of events, but an interpretation of Augustana-its con- sistent body, its policy rooted in the past, its hopes and ambitions for the future. We of the ROCKETY-l staff have interpreted Augustana as we see it. ln our years at Augustana we have seen changes, progres- sive and regressive. We have seen innovations. We have seen growth of the student body, numerically, in- tellectually, and toward a more sophisticated under- standing of the world around them. We have seen faculty changes and building changes. Although the changes are many, there remains the Augustana tone. Symbolically, physically, and realistically Augus- tana is students. And the creative student life, the Augustana tone, is what we depict.
