I The Class of ' 46 made itself known on the Lambuth Campus on September 21, registration day, and from that day it has carved a recognized place in the curriculum and life of Lambuth College. The next day, twenty-four boys and twenty-one girls experienced, for the first time, a class in college. The surroundings, people, re- quirements, and responsibilities were strange, but strangest of all was getting used to being Miss or Mr. At last, college was a reality. For the first month or two, we accepted, without a question, the title of green freshmen . We were green through fear of being out of place, of being homesick, and through the excitement of being free and on our own . Receptions and parties helped us get acquainted with the other students and the faculty and college seemed a little more like home. Then came the never-to-be-forgotten hell week and initiation, after which we cast aside (or laid carefully away among other souvenirs, those proverbial freshman caps and donned a robe of premature dignity — to wear through the remainder of the year anyway. Early in the second quarter, the following class officers were elected: Walter Lee Underwood, President; Helen Gilbert, Vice- President; and Coleen Jolley, Secretary. 26
