146 Dental Hygiene I President Judy Crutchfield Vice President Sandra Egeland Secretary-T reasurer Leah Findley Social Chairman Linda Booth Left to right: Sandra Egeland, Linda Booth, Judy Crutchfield and Leah Findley On registration day, September 16, 1964, we, the freshman class of the Caruth School of Dental Hygiene, met with Dr. Swords for the first time. On that day the year was spread before us. We learned of the ways, the rules and regula- tions. the courses. the teachers and the texts that were a part of our school and would become a part of us; and we wondered how all of this would come to pass. But the days of wondering were short, for we plunged headlong into a time of discovery, There was the mesiobuccal cusp. the figure-eight bandage, the distorted image of one’s X-ray partner’s mouth. Out of the melted carving wax, frayed eauze. and ten million retakes came something other than frustration: the feeling of accomplishment, the budding of self- confidence. We sought and we found. The second trimester was oriented by the rustle of new uniforms, freshly starched for our first day in clinic, and the pungent scent of formaldehyde and fix. We discovered perio and pedo and how to curette the disto-lingual of the upper first molar. Then we discovered ourselves as a class as we moved bag and baggage into Wilma Bass Memorial Hall. But the fields of discovery extended beyond dentistry into the New Testament, public speaking and visual education. We began to realize the importance of related subjects which broadened our horizons as we related our discoveries to our chosen profession. The third trimester was a time of application. We went from prophy-technique to our first patient, from roentgenology class to our first full-mouth radiographic survey, from lab and the text to the clinic. We streaked plates and organisms grew, we mixed amalgams and from this teeth were filled. From out of many discoveries came a tangible reality—the knowledge of how things are done. And out of this came the most valuable discovery of our freshman year: we learned how it felt to be able to help.

Enthusiasm reigns in micro lab. Mr. Tom Winford reviews questions for a scheduled quiz. Dental Hygiene I Security is having your poster completed on time and approved. A reward of being a new senior: receiving the name of your “little sister.” Linda Rausch spent hours earning the well-deserved “A” in visual education. Did we enroll here to become hygienists or scientists?
