FOREWORD For you, the Hyakem staff has endeavored to preserve many of the 43’44 memories you have of C. W. C. E. The year brought many changes in our normal routine and February marked the first anniversary of the College Training Detachment on our campus.

PRESIDENT McCONNELL ' S MESSAGE Hu college year of 1943-44 has been an exceptionally busy one. Army Air Forces students have occupied Kamola Hall and have received their instruction in several classrooms and laboratories set aside for their use Their presence has added a military air to the college life. Civilian students and faculty have put forth an unusual effort to make this program a successful undertaking. We all have been pleased to have this opportunity to participate in the war training program. The 314th College Training Detachment has been successful, and it will live favorably in the memories of all of those who have had a part in it. The pages of this book reflect how the aviation students have entered into all phases of the life of the campus. Likewise, civilian students of education, nursing, business, and home economics have had a busy year. They too have been training themselves for service to their country In fact, the entire college has been tuned to patriotic services. Ibis Hyakem will provide us with a record of this important war year. It is truly a history that will be of intense interest to many. We extend the best of wishes to those who graduate and to those who leave us for other assignments. Good luck! Robert e. McConnell 7
