 [(I ns E3V. - w O youngest of the giant brood Of cities far renowned. In glory's race thou hast outrun Thy rivals at a bound. Thou art a mighty Queen, Xew York. And how wilt thou be crowned? ''Weave me no glittering palace wreath, Thy royal city said. “Nor forge of frowning fortress walls A helmet for my head. But let me wear a diadem Of W isdom's tow'rs instead. She bowed herself, she spent herself. She worked her will forsooth. And set upon her island height A citadel of Truth, A house of Light, a home of Thought. A shrine of noble youth. Stand here, ye City College Towers, And look both up and down; Remember all who wrought for you Within the toiling town. Remember all her hopes for you. And be the City's Crown! Remember all her hopes for you. And be the City's Crown! —Henry Van Dyke 13

Of course, there’s still the cafeteria. And sometimes, after classes, groups of us still drift into the cafeteria, sit down at the old tables, and shoot the breeze — just like we did in the days before Manhattanvillc. Probably, though, things around here will never really change too much. People will still be leaving notes, “highly personal ,l publ c , «i, • Lev'ne’ a has heCaP Room 223, She d, sffscc in the ««« • SHEPARD ,ln was ‘ ,05$ f'«m
