We had reached the half- way mark in our careers after brav- ing the uhigh seas for two years. The worst seemed to be behind us, and we came back, this fall, glowing with pride in our new position. Junior year was the time to write a ubaby thesisv, become engaged or indulge in intense philosophical dis- cussions-and all in spite of twenty- four credits. At last we were matured. We had crossed the bridge of Fresh- man awedness, climbed the wall of sophistication and, now, we were finally on the inside, looking out. We had earned the rank of upperclass- men. The Freshman Adoption ceremony ensured our rights to Junior privi- leges and gave us an opportunity to demonstrate our talents in vaudeville. 92 fi 3 L I 1 f F :Y 1 'QI W! FNS? 76 F rf

Eliot was a con- troversial topicg and speaking French was suddenly the thing to do. In a mock presidential election, N. D. went Republican and voted Eisenhower into officeg the rest of the nation followed our footsteps shortly afterwards. This might have been due to the efforts ,of Eileen McCaffrey and Rita Rogers who met the president-to-be quite accidentally. Were they surprised when they found themselves the only passengers on his private ferry and had the oppor- tunity to shake his hand and talk with him. The Junior-Freshman Dance was our prize accomplishment. Remem- X g 3 5 -5 -2' Sleighing parties on those cold, cold days.
