SENIOR CLASS HISTORY With June is written the closing chapter in the college careers of the students of the class of 1940. We have been privileged to enjoy the experiences, rich scholarship, and so- cial endowments which the University so willingly offered to us. We arrived bewildered and childlike and emerge men, ex- perienced and capable, ready and proud to take our places among the others in the world. The class has seen much development of its alma mater. Scholastically a step was taken forward with the establish- ment of a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. Physically it has grown by the erection of three large and stately buildings. Still greater development and progress are in sight. Pen and paper are not sufficient to express the memories — vivid and dear — which shall remain with us of our University days. Each has his own memories which this shall serve only to recall. It is our hope and belief that leaders shall emerge from among our ranks, and that some day we shall all meet again upon the path of life. [ 27 ]
