In the glare oi the afternoon sun, Hyde Chapel, the Administration building cupola, and Hyde Library stand out. Oh, man! What a test! Yeah, I know. I just can ' t believe some of those equations he gave us. Can you believe that I studied for two hours and left half of those derivatives blank? Yeah, I know how it is. But it ' s been like this all semester; I ' m used to it by now. Oh, well, who cares? Let ' s go get a Coke. — Senior conversation after second semester test.

Who Cares ? A)Everybody B)Somebody C)Anybody? Panic after a test, Boredom during some Friday-morning chapels, Disappointment after some games — what was our reaction to these situations? Who Cares? This expression of disappointment, boredom, panic, apathy, and a multitude of other feelings was a phrase that we heard every day in the locker room, the lounge, the classrooms, and the halls. And with the deterioration of the tradiational Buzzard spirit and continuation of the traditional Senior Slump; the more-than-usual losses of the football team, and the fewer than usual issues of the newspaper, some of us began to wonder if many people really did care. But there was nothing to really worry about. For though not everyone cared about all of his classes or the records of our athletic teams, we all cared about the school. Col. Lynn, the faculty, the students, and the courses combined to form both an experience and a community. And though concern for the MUS community was expressed in many different ways, we all cared about MUS and the people who made it up. 1974 was a year for everybody to care about the MUS community.
