The Trials And Triumph 0f A , New School Now, what have these students learned about Bradley and college life? How do they feel about classes, dorm life, or Brad- ley itself? When asked why some of these students chose Bradley, the answers were: because Bradley offers my major, the size, the location, and l've heard a lot of good things about Bradley. Do you remember what you expected from college and Brad- ley? Was it independence? The chance to meet new and differ- ent people? A period of adjustment? Or to receive an educa- tion? Has Bradley lived up to those expectations? This year's new students had those same expectations, and, yes, Bradley did live up to them. As mentioned before - this Renaissance was to be a time for Discovery, a time of learning. And it has been that, for some even more. Bradley's new students have learned such things as how to accept the different people and to cope with them, that college is not easy - it takes work, that Bradley's students really are friendly, and they are great to be around. Basically, the size of Bradley permits a closeness to develop between the people here. When asked what better things Bradley has to offer, one answer seems to sum up a Bradley existence well: A good atmo- sphere, education, and a place to grow in many ways. Once again it the beginning of another year at Bradley University. Peoria, Illinois, and for many this happening is nothing extraordi- nary. These people will most likely tall back into the same , routine as last year or take on a similar one. These are the students familiar with Bradley, but what about the new stu- dents - the freshmen, the transfer and foreign exchange stu- dents - what will Bradley have in store for them? For these students, coming to Bradley is a new beginning - a Renaissance. . This new start is a time of discovery, a time to learn about Bradley University - the new life-style, the location of the buildings, the best classes to take, and how to survive those l classes. The start of the new year is also a period of revelation, a time where they realize who and what they are, and realize the chance this Renaissance offers them to become someone. I I l These new students will also have rough times and wonder about going to college, but then so did those returning. Eventu- ally these new students will find themselves in some type of routine, and enjoy this new type of existence -living at Bradley among those who have returned. To these new students and others: That's student life: Wecome to Bradley! l l l l l ., 41 my - l 50' l . -,, ,'xJ-- 'SX l T' l Photos By i William Hammen 14!Student Life 4 . ,LV ,nspqg

In and out of the trees that figure moves, Flippling across the meadows like a pearly, translucent shadow. Still, how close to the truth this is. Gliding mockingly down past the envious stream that struggles to move as gracefully as the other. This one puts beauty to a senseless shame. Seeming to float with true enchantment Contrary to magic, flying with the wind. l-low sad that as the sun will rise This wonder must find other sites to sway so sweetly. Though with every twilight hour the music and dance begin again so beautifully.
