Tradition . . . and Mac Page Fam' The traditions of a college are the sum of the dreams and hopes which the students of other years have created and which through successive gen- erations have been found worthy and vital and compelling. At Macalester, there is the Bell Tower and the Porte Cochereg there is the Frosh Camp and the Senior Breakfastg there are Frosh-Faculty parties, there is the Home- coming Carnival, Founders, Day, the WSSF driveg the Christmas carols in the hallsg Honors Dayg the All-Collegeg the last class and Move-up Day. Many of these ceremonies and days are listed in other catalogs. Each col- lege makes its own traditions, but because youth is the same on nearly every campus in America, the individual traditions are less important than the spirit of the undergraduates who keep them alive. For to them, these shrines and days and ceremonies mean friendships of enduring power, pledges of goodwill, dedications to service, dreams of achievement that the passing years may dim but not distinguish. The traditions of Macalester center about friendship and service, about love and sacrifice. We must never be ashamed of them, for all that is best of purpose and hope in our hearts has its roots in moments of high experi- ence, in a u11ity that transcends the separateness of persons so that we know that we belong to a fellowship, strong eve11 against the world. In an era of bitter cynicism, Macalester men and women close ranks around a body of tradition that rises from the foundations of youthful fellowship to the cli- matic cross of sacrifice. We have been happy in this place, through these young years, with these dear friends. We shall never desert what they have meant to us.
