Freshmen Begin a New and Exciting Year A freshman ' s first day at High Point College is a mix- ture of new and exciting ex- periences. Many willing and eager hands are ready to help new students unload cars and transport belongings to the dorms. Several upperelass- men boys, like these two Larrys, found themselves suffering from aching backs and strained muscles as the result of thousands of heavy suitcases, stuffed trunks and mysterious boxes. Stuffed animals by the b o x 1 o a d s f o u n d new homes in the rooms of VV Oman ' s Hall. Mass confusion reigned as new students became ac- quainted with their new homes, new friends and said goodbyes to their families. Sunday night found the fresh- men making new friends among the oldtimers on cam- pus.

Physical Properties of Campus Are Signs of Its Uniqueness A campus is made up of many things — people, trees, sidewalks, classrooms, bonks and buildings. These things make campuses universal, but each campus has its own unique qualities. The uniqueness of High Point College endears it to each and every student who passes through the portals of Roberts Hall. Roberts Hall is the most prominent building on campus. Its spire can be seen from any vantage point on the campus and when the weather is foggy, the tower seems to hover protectively over the college. Something new has been added to the campus this year. White parking signs have made their appearance. 7

As is true with most colleges, High Point abounds with many buildings of different shapes and sizes. Colonial architecture pre- vails on the campus. The sight of these buildings is the first impression that a student gets of High Point College. The newcomers do not see the students, the professors, or the Bookstore. They first be- come acquainted with the tower of Rob- erts Hall, ascending toward the utmost peak of knowledge — the Lamp of Learn- ing. With this first look, all the other buildings fall into view: Woman ' s Hall. McCulloch Hall, Memorial Auditorium.
