Senior Class History The fall Of the year ,4; twenty-five Of the greenest Frosh CV61: to grace the campus enrolled at Northland. It was the most marvelous feeling, at long last we were going to college! Our freshman year was well filled with tobaggan parties, hay rides, and the like with a little studying just to break the monotony. We began the substitute newspaper, the iiEnterpriseK a small wall paper to take the place of the Student Life. As Sophomores we were but sixteen, and with only ONE man. Our efforts were concentrated on raising money to purchase a War Bond which was pres- ented to the college in support of the Endowment Fund. Our Junior year with the return of G. 1,5. our ranks were swelled to twenty- two. The publication of the Wedge was our major project of the year. College life was enriched by college dances and hot dog sales in the lounge. Our Senior year has been filled with concentration on graduation with a grand round of picnics, parties, and dances to make it a most memorable year.

Junior Class History When the class of ,48 entered these portals as green iiFreshies,l we were only' twenty-nine strong but full of enthusiasm. In spite of this at roll call second semester only twenty voices answered. Four of our six men had been called to service and by June our class was composed entirely of girls. As Sophomores we were seventeen girls, just a little bit discouraged at the outlook of another manless year but much to the delight of all when second semester rolled around we had acquired nine husky ex-G. Ils. Things began to happen then and we sponsored the first formal dance since 1941. In May we took the Freshmen for a drink in the creek when we over-powered them in the annual Tug of War. In September, 1946, we started out as twenty-eight, and with the beginning of second semester we adopted two more to make us an even thirty. We pledged ourselves torthe hetterlnent of the student lounge and contributed ten large ash- trays which were products of our own labor. The publication of the Wedge was our principle project of the year. We as a class look back on three prosperous years and look forward in an- ticipation to our final year. May it he one of which we can be proud. .3
