Babson Means Business Babson College adheres to it ' s founder ' s philosophy of educating us for leadership. We are taught to make decisions critically and analytically, mindful of the human and societal effects of these decisions. To accomplish these ends, two required cores of study, management economics and liberal arts are studied diligently throughout the year. But, Babson offers us more. The classroom work gives us a foun- dation of principles upon which to build. However, the developement of leadership ability is more than classroom involve- ment. Because of Babson ' s small size, we are given unlimited opportunity to develop our own leadership style in Babson ' s co- curricular activities. Student interests are reflected in the diversity of clubs on cam- pus. They range from Sailing Club to the Finance and Investment Association. A unique characterisitc of Babson, is also the opportunity to start-up and operate your own business. They benefit us all, especial- ly late at night - One call to Wine- Line and a shout to the Pizza man in the hall and the studying atmosphere is instantly changed to a party.

Do It Up Besides studying, listening to speakers and participating in mind expanding activities, you must admit, Babson Students do have fun! Wednesday-nigiit-at-the-Pub is one event, which every student must have attend- ed at least once. Then there ' s the fraternity parties, the sports events, backgammon tour- naments and SOCO, BISO, and other assort- ed organization sponsored parties. But these are small-scale compared to the drawing power of such calendar marking events as Fall, Winter, or Spring weekends. This year the Social Committee kept busy planning these and other events, including a Monte Carlo Night, or two, Martin Mull, in concert, and other brain-blowing rock ' n ' rollers, live at Knight. Without a doubt, many Social activities that occurred during the year, have not been mentioned, but all are remembered.
