Mars Hill College - Laurel Yearbook (Mars Hill, NC)

Page 9 text:

FORE ORD A college yearbook is a storehouse of memories, hoarding in a permanent form an abundant supply of the fruits of campus life during a particular school year. The collection is all the more satisfying if it is garnished with a central theme. The staff of the 1964 Laurel conceived the idea that a meaningful account of this school year might be assembled around an interpretative answer to the question, What Is Col- lege? Such a question suggests a complex answer, but we do not presume that our answer will be all-inclusive or complete. We merely hope that we can stimulate some serious thought on the opportunities and re- sponsibilities of college-trained young people While, at the same time, preserving a generous slice of college life as we have known it at Mars Hill during 1963-64. - five W

It is typical of the beauty that surrounds the college and town A college, in the minds of some, is primarily a campus. Although this concept is too limited, the campus is an important part of college One alumnus described it thus: And then there is the campus itself - its buildings beautiful in memory if not always in reality, its lawns, the inscriptions on its halls, the streams that flow lazily through the grounds, the tower with its chimes. And when one walks about the grounds in the light of the full moon, nothing seems fairer, nothing is more full of romance, the bridges, the monuments, the halls, the library - all are suffused with a transfiguring light. They are not only things of the moment, but form part of the memories identified with college days. -six-
