IN THE SPRING a young man's fancy turns to the pleasant prospect of outdoor classes on the green. Until this warm season, infor- mal classes are limited to small sessions meet- ing at the instructor's house; informal get- togethers with the faculty are restricted to chats in the office or, perhaps, over a cup of coffee.

SEARCHING EVERYWHERE in the community, Brown men contract new ideas through association. The important topics of the day are passed around: the size of BB's bust line, the size and quality of the internationally-known Brown original, the Feeneyburger, the quality of Frank's latest coiffure. Getting together, playing together and even indulging together, friendships are created which will last as long as one alumnus needs another. Even a midnight beer at the Hob-Nob is a potential means of bringing students into association. I one passes out at the last stroke of the chimes - a friend is always available to help him back to bed. No man on campus is ever left lying in the cold.

COFFEE-RHINEWINE-OR-SHERRY i5s the familiar greeting from DProfessor Elmer Blistein at his Wednesday evening open houses. These open houses, where students, weary from studying, can chat casually and obtain a few pearls of wisdom, give the Brown man a chance to meet his teachers outside the classroom. Associate professor of English, Resident Fellow, and advisor to the freshman football tcam, Mr. Blistein is easily accessible around the campus. Professor I eslie Jones of the English Department can be found almost any time backstage of the theater. Technical director of dramatics, in charge of lighting, directions. and equipment, the Professor is shown below in his working clothes.
