5 IIIICIROCOSIII THE ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF THE STUDENTS OF DICKINSON COLLEGE CARLISLE- PENNSYLVANIA

PI?EI.LlDE..., HE purpose of the MICROCOSM has been often and well dehned. It is difficult to conceive of or invent a raison d'etre that has not been previously offered. And it does not lie within the province of the 1938 edition to embellish itself with new purposes. Its basic task is to present an accurate and full account of Campus and College life. This it has honestly attempted to do. There are certain things to be said, and these must be re- peated year after year. But there are several things that a new edition of an old story can do. It can present a fresh view- point, enliven its pages by throwing a new light on its stage, and take advantage of new techniques of expression. Upon this philosophy the 1938 MICROCOSM bases its hope for individuality. From the multitude of ideas for new ways of doing its work-offered from the creative and technical resources of its staff and publishers-it has tried to select the newest, the best, and the most lasting techniques by which to present a fresh and reinvigorated picture of Dickinson life. The true test of such a volume is not made by those who first open its pages. The newness and immediacy of it will perhaps justify its existence. Many years later the same volume will be lifted -from its shelf by those desiring a glimpse into the past. Mellowed by many intervening years, its worth. can truly be judged. If then it recreates vividly these years of College, it will have fulfilled its ultimate purpose. 4
