THE ACADEMIC AFFILIATIONS

Foreword The 1950 DONNYBROOK FAIR is based on the theme of the three groups of buildingSethe aca- demic group, the dormitory group, and the recrea- tional groupeand the activities most closely asso- ciated with each. We have not limited the activities categorically because some do not take place in the specific buildings under which they are listed. The buildings are merely the symbols of our dif- ferent associations on campus in our four years. Thus, Van Meter, the Hoffberger Science Building and the Julia Rogers Library stand for the relations between the faculty and the students in classes, con- ferences, and clubs. Mary Fisher, Bennett-Robin- son and Froelicher Halls symbolize the associations among the students themselves. Lilian Welsh Hall and the Barn mean the main religious, social and athletic core to Coucher students, for they contain the activities in which the students are brought into contact With people outside the college community. The Senior Class is the product of what the building groups stand for. These girls3 awareness of the value of scholarship, their practical knowl- edge of the great beneiit to be gained from living with other girls of different areas of the country and 0f the world, and their participation in the varied activities offered by Coucher give them a foundation for finer lives after they leave. The buildings themselves are not what is par- amount on this campus. The true importance lies in their representation of the less tangiibie, but equally real constituents of Coucher College.
