LOGOS 85 Eckerd College St. Petersburg Florida

Page 7 text:

Here we are friends, celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of a small, inti- mate college. A place that is more than a school, and much more than just a learning institution; a place so many of us are proud to call home. Like all new-borns. Eckerd College had its trials and tribulations while learning how to grow. Students today, simi- lar to those twenty-five years ago, share in some of the same dilemmas and good times. There is, for example, the first formal dance at St. Petersburg ' s Soreno Hotel on December 14, 1960. Over one-hundred stu- dents and faculty members danced to the music of Tony Esposito and orchestra. Or ... do you remember the first time you did your wash? All there was to it was finding the correct change, shoving all the clothes in, emptying the soap box and turning it on. What a way to learn . . . Here is a clip of an article that was run in the December 1960 issue of Trident (now referred to as the Eckspress:) If you want to clean a pair of tennis shoes, don ' t put six sheets, two sweat- shirts, and half dozen shirts in the washer with them. Believe it or not, washers have a maximum load capac- ity. When things start bulging out the top even after you ' ve crammed them down and put bricks on the top to keep them in — its safe to judge that the washer is a wee mite too full. On the other hand it does not take 120 minutes worth of hot air to dry a load of two shoes and two laces. Does this sound familiar? Why doesn ' t college come with an instruction sheet? Then there ' s the major dilemma of what will we eat? obviously not food, or is it? Even today. Saga ' s meals don ' t compare to mom ' s homemade meals, but they have im- proved over the years. -TfTTtT Upper left. Unaware of our photographer.
