New Mathematics-Business Building FOREWORD ■i» a a . ■« S5j; li I j%. .! •• •• ■■ 3.-, -iSa SI .a ir:- -iii j l si s: .i :i Scott Hall in the Winter In the past few years, our lives have been speeded up to such a pace that we are unable to take time for a lot of things. A hustle and a bustle to hurry up and live seems to be the trend. This new type of living is prevalent in all fields of work and play. We have reverted to the ancient idea of using symbols to represent the many activities expressed in daily living. As a result of this change, we use mottos, symbols, emblems, and trademarks to represent all aspects of religious, economic, political, and social endeavors. At every turn we are confronted with symbolism, be it a black and white handclasp or a picture of Uncle Sam in our daily newspaper. In searching for a theme for our yearbook, we found useful this recent trend of symbolism in illustrating the many facets of life at A. and T. State University. In this copy of the Ayantee, we have endeavored to incorporate the many activities in symbolic representation. Without a doubt, the foremost symbol of the spirit of A. and T. State University is our changing status from a College to a University, which is here symbolized by an advancement in the height of the goals on which our sights are directed. We have chosen as our symbol a ladder leading toward The Unreachable Star , ever mindful of Browning ' s admonition, Ah, but a man s reach should exceed his grasp, — or what ' s a heaven for?
