It •- y V i ■ ■ ■ m: V wa 5. 1963 CORNERSTONE CNATAM COLLEGE PIIISBURGH, PENNSyLVAKIA And what looked like a wall turns out to be a world With measurements of its own . . . W. H. Auden INTRODUCTION That wall which from a distance appears to be insignificant can assume grandiose proportions when approached. It becomes an obstacle to be sur- mounted, a blockade to be circumvented, but an attacker has the assurance that the wall, however high and wide, must be finite. Its bricks, its stones, its mortar can be methodically removed, and when they crumble, the world revealed is new, is fresh, is virgin land. Life is an eternal series of the walls of hate . . . of love ... of intellectual striving ... of knowledge- able pursuit. When first approached, there is no limit to their height and their breadth. However, when scrutinized and methodically attacked, these abstract walls assume dimensions, are limited, and fall. With their fall, worlds are opened and widened, bridges constructed, streams forded, and dams built. A student can often see the constructor moving ahead of her, throwing up walls more quickly than she can attack them, closing doors in her face, leaving bricks in her path. Yet it is her responsibility, her joy, to welcome the walls and tear them down, for It Is with their destruction that she strengthens, with their removal that she opens worlds, and with the view of these worlds that she grows. ' t ' - K . v f: . Within the walls, initial seeds of learning are sown, preliminary challenges to knowledge given, and basic facts established. Students continuously meet in these symbols of intellectualism, brick and mortar nucleii, awaiting the extension, the advancement to opportunities and attainments beyond. And a dusky moth sleepily emerges from an Isolating, confining cocoon to the butterfly world . . . Her wings spread and soar as she digests others ' views and clarifies her own. Knowledge cannot be limited to the books and authorities, for without knowledge of people, of individuals, the factual has little application. The contact, the marketing of ideas and ideals leads to this application . . . and to self-knowledge through an awareness and appreciation of others. 10 Calculus blends with an autumn day; convoca- tions with Saturday ' s date. 11 The undergraduate and graduate obstacles are surmounted, but learning processes continue. On ski slopes, in senninars, levels of knowledge seek a higher tide. 12 13 Expression In a mound of clay, in though!, soliloquy, con- versation, in a laboratory . . . knowing that the form of expression is immaterial. The satisfac- tion gained, the need ful- filled holds the importance. 14 15 Realizing learning has no limits, no stopwatch, the student walks beyond the classroom door and the library . . . reads under a tree, argues in a trolley, thinks on a staircase. 16 17 18 Faces, buildings, purposes, change, but as time rushes on, the traditions and the memories they have produced remain ingrained and stable. Time and change can- not wear away the warmth of song . . . of friendship shared ... of a grand slam. tI 19 20 The individual finds her slot and slips in . . . perhaps by herself, perhaps bringing others. HHer connpan- ion nnay be a typewriter ... a person of similar interests . . . but be what it may, the individual enlarges her outlook. .I ' i ; i ; ' f .iiis 1 s 1 Mr ' ' lii H 21 :S 22 To give thanks for the honor and glibly say yes . . . the origin of the species of responsibility, but far from the end of the race ... to accept ... to capably fulfil ... to grow. 23 iirj ' .f f FACULTY A wall so much more enigmatic because it is composed of human beings, the faculty represents a complex of professional standards to be met, as well as individual personalities to be compromised on both the part of the student and the professor. A row of bricks, a physics problem, must ulti- mately be finite; there comes a point at which it must stop, for all practical purposes, or be resolved . . . but the involvement of two minds and person- alities, while it can be almost nil, in one case, can in another take on limitless dimensions of intellectual and sympathetic rapport. At first encounter, whether the professor sees a wall of apathy or of interest depends on the stu- dents; but once this gleam of curiosity, this aware- ness is found, as what does he regard it . . . market- able potential? Intellect at a premium? Or, more hopefully, a young mind just coming to realize the bewildering amount of knowledge before her, the struggles and introspection, the search for identity, and the fear of ridicule, of failure. As well as classroom lectures, discussions of Donne and lymph nodes over cups of coffee, of Moliere and the set theory over chocolate ice cream brings a blending of discipline and encour- agement, of challenge and human understanding; and out of a wall is built a foundation. 24 25 What do we hope happens to the Chatham stu- dent in these four, often wonderful and often tedi- ous, years? Certainly we want much more than the fulfillment of 124 semester hours with their accom- panying 372 classroom periods. Certainly we expect something better than the minimum which a cata- log sets down. To say what more and in what manner Is not easy. Perhaps It Is best to hope that each student In her own way and In her own time will write her own history of her time at Chatham. Some may Include the sudden and thrilling realization of a new concept, maybe even of a new priority of values for life itself. Others may be content to acknowledge an increased awareness of what the human animal can be, as well as what it actually Is. Still others may remember Chatham as a collec- tion of strange and beautiful sights and sounds. Perhaps this College makes sense only when one recalls the sound of a professor ' s voice, the clatter of a typewriter, the strum of a distant violin, the flutter of pages in a book, the silence of a Sunday afternoon, or the laughter of a Saturday night. Whatever the concept, Chatham strives to be education at Its best. This means increased under- standing, strengthened confidence, true love of knowledge because It may mean a better world for better men, and hope — the hope that rational man may yet make sense and may yet treasure the gift of life with which he is endowed. This is Chatham. But you must write your own history. Only the first chapter has been completed. Edward D. Eddy Jr. President of the College 26 Miss Amelia J.

It must have numerous vulnerable points, ready to crumble at the first, often feeble, attempt of the unknowing to strike out at the bounteous life which surrounds her. Each day some small portion of mortar is chipped away in the individuals struggle to attain independence, understanding, sensitivity and knowledge. hHopefully no stone will be left un- marred. At times the dismantling will be a community effort — a Community Government, a rousing Song Contest — furthering the individual ' s awareness of herself as an Integral part of a community. Once the security of sanctioned activity has been ac- cepted, the student must laboriously seek challeng- ing obstacles, encountering them with enthusiasm and a willingness to give of herself. It Is In this capacity that the true person Is developed. The hierarchy of organizations and clubs ever present on college campuses may simply be decora- tion upon the wall, yet they may provide the most satisfying and successful means of scaling the barri- cade. Curiosity and initiative can pierce the strong- est fortress revealing infinite means of satisfying one ' s needs. Opportunities to expand are endless, It is only the attacker who Is wanting. When she comes, she must realize there Is work to be done, and that In this work lies the key to her being. 44 .. a , , .., .. j •=«s ' , i gggyy 45 CCS. was conceived In September, discussed in November, passed in December, and enacted in January.

Through the years each travels a different path from any other — some are more successful than others, but all are in some way ful- filling their intellectual and social goals. Each September a throng of new, vital, invigorat- ing individuals descend upon Chatham. Some have come only to study and will spend hours hunched over the long wooden tables in the library. Others consider studying as one obstacle to getting an enjoyable education and in order to save face will resort to banging out the last sentence of her week- late paper in the wee hours of the morning. What- ever the motivation, whatever the objective, Chat- ham students do learn. But personal expansion can not depend wholly upon the understanding of Renaissance art, the New Republican Party, or intricate titrations, it must also stem from the varied inter-relationships between faculty and student — realizing that both get their feet wet in the first April shower — and stu- dent, student relationships — an all night conclave to master an Astronomy problem. All of these are essential elements in the intricate development of each student — until she finds that what looked like a wall is a world with measure- ments of its own . . . 90 91 Gail Fabricus, Treasurer; Patty Williamson, Secretary; Ann Greenhouse, Vice President. II wasn ' t long after dinks went on that facades began to wear off. One hundred and ninety ex- cited Individuals found early that real human beings were wanted and appreciated at Chatham. This appreciation of the genuine person was a great relief to many who were finding it surprisingly easy to let go of high school mannerisms and take on themselves, for all they were worth. Song Contest gave the Freshmen early encour- agement. Talent and personalities were efficiently and effectively formed Into one expression of the many things this class might be able to offer. They were then, for the first time, considered a class. The new class was convinced that it could give much more. Freshman Entertainment, in its infant stages, seemed too ambitious an undertaking. Per- haps it was. Yet through superhuman effort on the part of many individuals, a good show was staged. Moving Up Day will be experienced with hopes of more of the same to come for the Freshman class. The Freshmen are not lacking enthusiasm surely, and yet each class faces the possibility of losing this youthful and vital energy. hHowever, with as much as there is to gain in the coming three years, the class will perhaps replace this generalized vitality with direct lines of individual purpose and achievement.

SOPHOMORES Now at the halfway point in our years at Chat- ham we can look back at what we have accom- plished and the new dimensions we have explored this year. Enthusiasm pervaded our Freshman year as unity evolved through the novel victory of Freshmen winning Song Contest. The climax of our high spirits resulted in the memorable performance of our Freshman Entertainment, The American Evolution. To celebrate the arrival of Spring, we Invited the faculty progeny and the children of Woodland Road residents to join us in rolling colored Easter eggs across Mellon Lawn. On Moving-Up Day we traded our white dresses for the black and white of Sophomores assuming the role of upperclassmen. We had no time for a Sophomore slump as we packed taxis to go to the polls, to attend concerts and art exhibits and the various other events that a woman of the world must be subjected to. With the bagpipes still wheezing from Song Contest, we headed for an Alpine Evening at the Webster Hall hlotel. Those hardy souls who braved the treacherous snowy weather found the hardships were soon forgotten in the informal atmosphere of the evening. Now again on Moving-Up Day we launched our Senior sisters with typical class ingenuity. After experiencing the subjects of the basic cur- riculum and as a result of the tedious process of elimination, we finally declared our majors. With our perspectives now In focus, we look for- ward with anticipation to our next two years. 104 105 Firsf row: Barbie Brubaker, Rosemary Cesarone.

Ill JUNIORS We as Juniors look back together at our accom- plishments of this past year, but it is as individuals that we established our identity in our major field. Returning in the fall, we introduced our Little Sisters to Chatham life, each in our own way — a drink at Sodini ' s or an insight into H.D. and B. Uni- fied at Song Contest, we raised our voices and our glasses triumphantly in the Chapel and Web ster Hall. Junior year also brought the contemplation of a world without war and the development of stream of consciousness thinking. Spring brought a glorious weekend complete with a moonlight Nocturne of dancing under vanishing lights and mosquito netting, hula girls and coconuts, and as a finishing touch, a midnight cruise on the Gateway Clipper. Desperate conferences, frazzled nerves, a clamor for Ideas and endless refining could only mean the beginning of the end — tutorial statements were due! At the all-college convocation special notice was taken of the Class of 1964 in the tap- ping of next year ' s Mortar Board members and the election of a Junior to Phi Beta Kappa. The ap- proval of our tutorial statement and the completion of the twenty-fourth arts card put the finishing touches on our Junior year. In ironic juxtaposition the Class of 1 964 continues to strive for a common goal each in her own way.

Indeed the class of 1963 has proven the inherent validity of Lawrence Durrell ' s observation. A gaggle of gigglers over one hundred fifty strong scurried to Chatham in the fall of ' 59. Over one hundred fifty disparate points of view vied for indulgence. They could not have known then that two paces to the east, two years, one presi- dential election, one Mary-in-the-Snack-Bar, two deans, fourteen pie fights, thirty-four pins, twenty- four arts cards, and ninety Mazer birthdays later that some semblance of unity would emerge. Linked in liberality, community spirit, anti-traditionalism, curiosity, and basic curriculum orientation, the class of ' 63 approached an amazing similarity In point of view. Then — two paces to the west — as upperclass- men, divergence again gained ascendance. Each individual mobilized for her tutorial, each culled the most from her department and her tutor, following her unique pattern of intellectual and personal ex- pansion. For some hiapplness was a round Poll Sci Room table, others yielded to 3 AM excursion urges or tripped to the Kentucky Derby. Still others haunted the dark recesses of laboratories, and sev- eral sought expression in the security of back booths at Sodlnl ' s. Some even proved that the edu- cated woman can still respect at least one conserva- tive Institution — marriage. In short In June of 1963, the whole kaleidescopic picture had shifted once again; the gamut of laughter and tears, flippancy and earnestness had been run. Ninety-one stalwart survivors — individualistic In viewpoints and resolute in convictions accepted the resounding, if unartlcu- lated challenge of an eager.

The forward looking Cor- nerstone staff refused to accept defeat. The late start along with other inevitable obstacles created a mountain of work and many sleepless nights. It couldn ' t have been done, however, without the timely assis- tance of certain concerned and vital individuals. In the primary stages when the staff was In dire need of direction and confidence, the guidance of Mrs. Shaw and the Public Relations department was Invaluable. Marty Wilson, Janie Trader and especially Walt Sickles helped to record our mem- ories on film, hielping to add the finishing touches Bonnie Dallas, Diana Wirslg, and Carolyn Tamp- lln captured in word the mood and spirit of this year at Chatham. Although a bit delayed, it Is with a sense of pride and accom- plishment that we present our finished product.
