Memory is fragmentary; sometimes a cool mist will recall a summer storm; a certain type of pencil may be reminiscent of a particular thought. Memories of college life are especially subject to jumbling, confusion, and often, forgetting. No one picture or series of pictures can be an adequate representation of the sensations and meditations of an en- tire year, but hopefully a brief instant of life captured on film can suggest an episode that time had temporarily dis- carded. Perhaps this year at Bowdoin has not been greatly different from other years. In that case there is the possibili- ty that some reason for the similarity can be seen. And if each year has its own character, it is likely that each person’s impression of sights and sounds is different, and can be awakened on a page.
