Standing: XY'ood, Newkxrk, SE lllll CLASS HISTSHY After four short years, we, the class of '51, face the reality that our college days are over. We recall a seemingly endless series of problems but we realize now that these are completely overshadowed by re- membrances of good times and priceless friendships. As we ask ourselves what the uncertain future holds in store for a graduating class of 1951, our thoughts return momentarily to Hampden-Sydney. As Freshmen we quickly felt the effects of our ascendance to the college level, but still discovered to our displeasure that perhaps our coveted role as Freshmen was not up to our expectations. It was a year of adaptation with many falling by the wayside, while those left realized the advantages of life as upper classmen. Our Sophomore year we responded readily to our new responsibility of molding the spirit of a Fresh- man Class with the result that the Tiger roared probably as loudly as ever before. As Juniors we felt ourselves stranded helplessly between the realm of the Sophomore and that of the Senior. We settled down with a more cautious eye toward the future and at times felt as though the college ordeal would never end. At last we were Seniors. The days seemed to race by rushing our departure from a life which we had begun to realize might be a little more secure than the one immediately before us. We wondered what had come of our four years and at the same time became a little impatient to investigate the future. So now we stand at the doorway to this future, slow to realize that the past is done, but ready to advance to the real test lying ahead. Bonny Woon, Class Historian
