F oreword - llLawrence envisaged the poets' secret as a technical mastery of words rather than as C: particular mode of living and thinking. I had not yet learned enough to be able to dispute this, and when I did begin to learn, some years later, found Lawrence difficult to convince. - Robert Graves This book is an experiment in how a college yearbook might be made more worthwhile. And making the many thousands of photographs for the book and doing all the other work associated with its completion comprised an experiment in what a meaningful college life might be for John Phillips and me. We learned much about photography and much about people while working on this proiect. We were successful, we think; our long-term education benefited c1 great deal. But in the eyes of the college we failed - by the time the manuscript was completed we had both been dismissed by Dean James Stouss and the Committee on Academic Standing. People like you will be better off at some other type of school, they said. And will Grinnell be better off too? We doubt it, and we do care. But, we con shrug it off and laugh - we did get to make our very own picture book. And we do want to thank John Wolf and Susan Barquist for the help and encouragement they gave us throughout our project. x- Henry Wilhelm Editing and Design by Henry Wilhelm Text by Henry Wilhelm and John Wolf Students question professors John Crossett and Howard Burkle after their debate on existentialism and god.
