Goucher College - Donnybrook Fair Yearbook (Baltimore, MD)

Waen we gathered here at Goueher at the beginning of our F Ieshman year, each had her own reason for coming. Some of us wanted the prestige of a diploma; some of us, the experience of college life,- some of us, the satisfaction of learning. No matter what our origi- nal purpose, we have gained more than we had expected. In a system of teach ing that was a little diHerent from any- thing we had known before, we devela Oped more independent methods of studying. New courses taught us new ways of thinking. There were new ideas to be pondered and new standards by which to try them. We met professors who inspired and Challenged our thought. Great books and good Ieca tures and discussions cultivated new areas in our minds. JVIore than ever before, we felt the spirit of the quest for wisdom. The Changes these have made in us are not shallow or trivial. We believe that we have acquired a weH-constructed foundation on which to build mature lives that will be richer for us and more valuable to others, and that we shall go on with greater wisdom and greater knowledge because of these four years. Therefore, it is to true edu- cation, education for complete living, that we gratefully dedicate our book.

Every part of our college life contributes to the perpetuation of these ideals, and t0 the development of minds and characters that will prepare us for com- plete living. In order to show the ways in which Goucher prepares us, DONNYBROOK FAIR has been di- vided into four books. Studies and social ae- t tivities, organizations and athletics are equally important in the attaining of our goal as it is expressed in Gouchefs Eight Objectives.
