PENDLETON HEIGHTS — In 1841 William Pendleton built the house on the Hill to serve as a home for future presidents. Bethany has a heritage deep and rich with meaning. It is old mixing new — generations passing in between. It is exams and cramming and homework, the Gates and the President ' s home on the hill. It is friends, football games and dances, classes graduating and the memories they take with them. It is all this and more. An Old Main where hundreds have walked, a Tower sticking up high enough to be seen for miles around, a town and 140 years of tradition. It is all this . . . The Falls of Bethany, somewhere in the woods behind the Heights. 8 LOOKING BACK

The passing of time leaves a wake of passing events. They are not lost for memory follows time and picks them up. Freshman Hazing in 1961 — Hazing was traditional on college campuses because it too oriented freshmen to college life. Hazing began in the Beehive, the freshmen received their handbooks, nick-names, beanies and demerit books. When Tribunal Night finally came, the girls went to Irvin Gym, where they performed exercises. The boys were outside doing calisthenics on the lawn, while all sorts of debris was thrown at them. The Moo Moo Moo was organized in 1923 as a honorary pep organization for the purpose of maintaining college spirit. V ? i- 10 LOOKING BACK
