oucher College is -a living, growing organism. Because we recognize that growth and development are the vital forces of our college community, we of the 1954 Donnybrook Fair have tried to record the story of an exciting year for the college itself and for all the members of the community. The development of the college is most easily seen in the vast growth of the college plant-the external development of the campus, with its functional build- ings and spacious grounds. The academic year 1953- 1954 marked a new era for Coucher College, for with this year the college became an integrated community on its campus in Towson. The views of the campus in this book vividly show the development of our col- lege buildings-from the oldest, Mary Fisher Hall, completed in 1942, to the newly finished Hoffberger Science Building, to the orange girders and swinging crane of the quickly rising gymnasium. Another area of development-perhaps not so readily seen, but as surely real as the molding of stone and mortar-is that quiet growth in the students of Coucher College, whose purpose is to prepare each girl for mature, intelligent living in the modern world. The development in each student of intellectual powers, physical and mental stamina, responsible, resourceful leadership, and a sense of participation in the community is carefully provided for in the blueprints of the living college. The Junior Class herewith presents to the whole col- lege community and especially to the members of the graduating class a record of 1953 and 1954, The Campus: The Development of Goucher College Classes: The Development of the Mind Athletics: The Development of the Body 4 Activities: The Development of the Individual in the Group '
