 JCtr r 10 ni ipiS Su v.£?3 ... a homecoming When you leave Furman, you leave with a lx ld, lucid, panoramic, teeming fresco of memories. But time acts on it like the slow, steady stroking of a hand. The passing of years gradually rubs it into only a semblance of what it was, dull and vague and barely recognizable. But as the years fade, the memory of the Homecoming will burn brighter and warmer. It is a memory that is not effaced but burnished by the stroke of years. And this is fortunate, because the memory of each Homecoming holds in it the sum of each year . . . The moment is more than a holiday. Each time, it seems to incarnate—vivid and vital and palpable—the character, the spirit . . . the image of the year. Each time, it marks the moment of truth—when you are finally and most fully a freshman or sophomore or junior or senior. Even more. Homecoming is a kind of celebration of what it means and how it feels to be a student. The grand, boisterous, majestic jubilee of bands and beauties, floats and football, parties and parades is actually a lush flowering of the unseen, but just as mighty, jubilee in the hearts of those who are students and are proud and glad that they are and in the hearts of those who were students and who come back to remember what it was like. Especially grand and gay—and, also, Ixristerous—was the year 1961-62. For more reasons than one, it was eminently a year to remember. That year is contained in this liook. In a sense, every time you look back through this annual, it will be a kind of private Homecoming for you. You will remember—and experience once again—those tangy fall afternoons of football . . . the plays and concerts and club meetings . . . the business of citizenship, and the honors . . . the campus itself, and perhaps some place where you spent a still moment alone once . . . of course, the classes . . . but, most of all, the people. Thus, no matter where you may be or how many years have passed, here is your own personal Homecoming—one that you may invoke and experience again whenever you take down this book and open its pages. 2 —Marshall Frady.
