We arrive with expectation: ideas in our pockets, glitter in our eyes. As freshmen we are open to all that Southern has to offer, and we boldly enter its world. We are wrapped in a haze of confusion and excite- ment, endings and beginnings, until we find our place amidst it all. Sophomore year brings the superiority that comes from know-how. We have a niche in this community, and our dreams and ex- pectations are ingrained in us and in all that we do. We make time for ourselves and time to live our dreams. As juniors we are often panic-stricken. What are we doing here? Why are we put- ting ourselves through this? The plans no longer seem sturdy, and we are frightened by what we have asked of our school and of ourselves. Finally we reach the point when we can see clearly how much we have changed and how far we have come. We proudly call ourselves seniors. The dreams and schemes, fears and frustrations are enmeshed, and the culminate in that final walk across the Brans- comb stage. As the tassel is moved, we step from one reality into another. if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. -Henry David Thoreau It is our dreams that have brought us here, have sustained us, and will carry us home. As we journey through our years at South- ern, these fantasies unfold and test their fragile wings. Some blossom and are real- ized, some are left to dissolve into thoughts that were, and others are clutched more tightly in anticipation of their eventual fulfill- ment. College li fe provides us the realization of many of our goals: we are sports stars, Greeks, JA ' s, chorale members, Vagabonds. We lead active social lives, we make good grades, we have fun, we make close friends. But our college years are also a stairway to where we hope to be. What we are now is a step toward what we will become. Soon, we will be professional athletes, executives, teachers, performers, writers. Our dreams build one upon another as the present leads us to a hoped-for future. Southern sets us on the threshold. .
