On Campus for anticipated participation in adult society. By switching roles and interac- ting with one another on campus HPC students lived a full and ba l- anced year. Each person may not have played each role successfully, but each triumph and each failure have become the characteristics that pin-point this year, 1970-71, in history.

Several Student Roles Mingle Wide-spaced buildings on tree- littered lawns provide a picturesque stage upon which the HPC student lives his college career. On campus, during the four years he is here, each individual plays many roles. Essentially he has a unique role, one which sets him apart from others, but he must also become a member of the group, playing a role consistent with the roles of other members so that the group may be cohesive. In either case, he switches roles constantly. Perhaps the most important role a student plays is the academic role, in which he interacts with other students and faculty mem- bers, striving to be educated and to learn so that he may be a contri- buting member of a working soci- ety. From the parental point-of- view, this is the only role the stu- dent should play, since an educa- tion is the main purpose of his col- lege career. However, to many students the academic role seems to be taking far more than its share of time. These students are anxious to be involved in the social, competitive and leadership roles on campus which provide needed preparation
