GDLII' ilinrmal 'i humtiun ' When most of you enter the new worldof college, you will believe that you have lost all contact with Madison. You have only to come across your old, dishevelled edition of Huckleberry Finn, with thumb-prints, in the corner and scribbling in the margins, to realize that while former ideals and opinions might have become unworthy of you, the source from which you drew-those forty weeks, hve periods a week that you printed on yearly Regents cards-will always be a part of you. Although you experienced emotional crises and political and personal successes, these are probably a closed chapter whose dusty pages you will rarely reopen. That paper-bound book, however, can never grow stale for youg it can be interpreted in various ways, and therefore its ideas can never be lost to your past. Your formal education of reading, writing, listening, and discussing was, then, the most important influence on you. During these years, there has been such diversification of courses that there has been no everyman's education. Our nostalgia can flow back to the same source, however, when we are speaking of books. We have all weighed the nobility of Brutus' ideals against the craftiness of the murder, and hoped that Betsey Trotwood would adopt David Copperfield. Our hearts have beat in sympathy with those of Romeo and Juliet, and our eyes have lighted with sadistic joy upon the unwanted copies of the Saturday Review Reader in the crooks of sorrowful elbows. One has only to look at the bookshelf to remember the ties that bind , there lies Huck Finn upon Wuthering Heights, with Moby Dick nearby. Beth Pessen
