The morning march ; 4fter the Sophomore year we entered the Great Void of Northeastern education — we became Middlers. In a five-year curriculum something ' s got to give, so at NU it ' s the third year. You must have had several dis- cussions like this: What year are you in at college? My third year. Oh, then you ' re a Junior. No, I ' m a Middler. I didn ' t quite catch that ' — a what? A Middler. You see, at Northeastern . . . And so on. Anyone who has been through that knows for sure that just being a Middler is the losingest of battles. Nevertheless, some important things happened while we were in the limbo of Middler ship. Dean Melvin retired from being Dean of Students to devote his time to teaching (twelve hours a week of classes seems to be his idea of retirement ) . Dean MacDonald replaced Dean Melvin, Prof. Ken- nedy replaced Dean MacDonald, Prof. Ryder was made Dean of Administration, and Prof. Vernon was ap- pointed Dean of the Graduate School. It was, in short, a peak year for dean-production. In a pretty cool maneuver on somebody ' s part, the sophomore-Middler Prom was billed this year as the Middler-Sophomore Prom, in deference to our ad- vanced status (or maybe someone decided we had a hard enough time just being Middlers without being last, too). This one was dubbed Cest Magnifique by its optimistic planners. Hayden Hall or Graduate Center. '
