■y ou i ww aims . . . before ive set our eyes to the future our lofty aims must be nurtured. The scientific complexities of the universe are presented to us within the ivalls of Tome and Baird. Our minds and emotions are nurtured until ive are ready for the responsibilities of maturity. U e reach out for the ideas of all mankind and we are mixed into groups until we learn to live with people. It takes time to make Dickinsonians and our four years seem very short, yet here we plant our aims and watch them grow into actualities.

ijhese Ancient Grounds . . . are the scenes of our college days and will someday be part of our fondest memories. Here the making of Dickinsonians is accomplished. The countless preparations which we make will become the realities of to- morrow, the recorded deeds of mankind . . . . . . which will aid in the making of others just like ourselves. Pausing before the ivy covered walls of Old W est we catch a glimpse of the past. Within these walls Time is continuing her flight through the years and She Hatches as Dickinsonians are cast into molds for the future. She watches the mingling of the crowds, the ingredients mixed into each one of us, and the careful blending of man with man. Within four years each individual is made into a Dickinsonian who can look forward to whatever may lie beyond. The recipe for the making of Dickinsonians is etched within these ancient grounds. It is not written and it changes with the years.
