Wx o-- ' ' - 7 CT ' C- ' — 6 The 1942 COMMONER Published by the Junior Class WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN UNIVERSITY DAYTON, TENNESSEE The Fjrst Glimpse of Bryan University FOREWORD N DEPARTING from the conventional style of former Com ' moners we present to you ' in the following pages a resume of the year ' s events. In what better way could Bryan University be portrayed than by following its activities in chronological order? As you peruse these pages may you relive this year in your mind and find therein the joy of spending a year of Christian cooperation in the L ord. May these pages inspire each reader to a higher reali2;ation of God Above All. DEDICATION to Rev. Albert J. Levengood . . . Who has given his time and effort to instruct us in the fundamental truths of God ' s Word, who has in his messages on prophecy taught us to Rightly divide the word of truth, who has manifested his leadership in encouraging and further- ing the work of the Christian Service Association. To him, we, the class of 1943, with sincere appreciation dedicate this tenth volume of the Commoner. Administration Building i tm ' 1 K lu Hyi T uilli P l5 [hi ■i L REGISTRATION From nineteen states and the District of Columbia came young men and women to register as students in Bryan University at the beginning of the fall quarter. One new student hailed directly from China; two others gave their birthplace as Africa; and another proudly declared his native land to be Ireland. September 23 . . . lonely, tired Freshmen wend their way up Bryan Hill and tremblingly go through the preresquisite ordeal of Freshmen Place- ment Tests. - September 24 . . . newcomers, quickly becoming adjusted to once-strange surroundings, find a nov- elty in choosing courses with the assistance of Dean Ryther, and the curricular requirements. After completing financial arrangements with Professor Fish and receiving work assignments from Mr. Llewellyn, each Freshman begins to feel like a real part of the university. September 25 . . . twenty-five Sophomores, four- teen Juniors, and eight Seniors return to Bryan Hill, happy to meet old friends again, anxious to welcome new ones, and courageously planning an attack on advanced subjects. September 26 . . . classes begin and Bryan Uni- versity starts on its twelfth year with the deter- mination that by the help of God Above All this year shall see great progress made.

Dormitory life at Bryan University provides this essential through the close associations among room- mates and neighbors. Anticipating this fellowship, freshman men were soon sit- uated in the dormitory section of the ad- ministration building and freshman girls quickly became accustomed to the cozy at- mosphere of the Octagon. dA |:- ' m Men ' s Dormitory Women ' s Dormitory fj Hermit ' s Hali on the left Octagon Lobby FRESHMEN INITIATION WEEK Registration over, September 29 opened a week of fun and hilarity for the Sopho- mores, but misery for the Freshmen. Wear- ing clothes backwards . . . shining Sopho- more ' s shoes . . . saluting upperclassmen . . . hitting the dust at the command air raid . . . obtaining signatures on a raw egg . . . wearing pig tails . . . cleaning the tennis court . . . donning multi-colored stockings and odd shoes ... all these constituted daily activities. Climaxing this the boys were marched to town barefoot, carrying buckets and mops with which they scrubbed a local drug store, meanwhile serving patrons on the sidewalk. The girls, on the other hand, furnished entertainment for high school football fans when they were forced to strut up the field between halves, striking up the band on wastebaskets. October 4 found dread of the blacklist removed and brought sighs of relief from all concerned. Tea!

Campus Clean-Up The Spring Quarter had hardly opened when the wel- come news of the annual spring clean-up was announced for March 31 and April 1. Knowing from psist experi- ence that this would be more work than play, President Rudd escaped to Canada and Dean Ryther retreated to Nashville. Climaxing the second day ' s work, the students and faculty gathered around a campfire for relaxation, enjoy- ment, and spiritual fellowship. Everj ' one enthusiastically agreed to have an extra day in which to add a finishing touch to the campus. All was not work, however, as evidenced by this char- acteristic senior. No further proof needed. Refreshments and plenty of original nonsense added zest to the work and zeal to the workers.

Dr. Lee has been pastor of the Bellevue Baptist Church of Memphis, Tennessee, since 1928. Under his zealous and energetic leadership this church has witnessed great physical and spiritual growth. He is much in demand as a speaker, and has an excellent command of the English language and literature. His interests are wide, and besides his ministry, he has found time to write nearly a score of widely read books, and to participate in many denominational, as well as secular, undertakings. Commencement ! Commencement! Another milestone is passed. Four great years of university training behind them. Now a greater fu ' ture before them. With smiling countenances and , deter- mination some will go into further prepara- tion for the ministry, others will enter the professional world, the business world . . . or the army, but wherever they go, the world shall see in them, our Seniors of 1942, a victorious testimony for the Lord.
