Somehow like morning air, a fresher atmosphere, easier to breathe in seeped into Fletcher with the first day of classes. A dress code relaxation brought about changes immediately apparent-the thicker, longer hair, the beards, the girls in boots and bells. They were physical changes, but representative of farther reaching differences, differences of mind and spirit and newness that began permeating a thickened air of learning. Dissatisfied with what had little lasting value, the move began, the shifting of the emphasis, in social and in educational ways. To be in became less important as opposed to being me. And a desire for a whole new realm of learning came into being with the jeans and hair and the guitars that strummed another way, a dif- ferent rhythm, a new beat.

To embark on the journey from the vast boundless- ness of sand castles, and the tides of creation meant proceeding into narrow brick walls and porcelain boxes. Such a transition brought about the revelation of a myriad of emotions-nostalgia, apathy, depres- sion, bewilderment. While the sea washed the castles away it left the lingering question: What treasures has the summer bestowed? And left, taking more than giving, and after having been adorned with the whimsical, unstructured freedom of summer, stagnant minds returned un- borng for birth is but a passing breeze. Who knows where the sand will be tomorrow?
