Intellectual Sanctuar Exerting its perennial magnetic powers of attraction, the library once more regained its dominance over the Oberlin mind, after a brief, furious struggle with the Mock Con- vention. In this intellectual home the average student spends 3800 hours in four years, Writing, thinking, reading count- less millions of Words, or just gazing. The obscure, insecure senior where shades recalls remembers the seasonless, climateless reserve room, the outside World makes changes only in the very of light which it casts upon the Window blinds. He the gentle humming of the fluorescent lights and the nerve-Wracking rasp of the seats as students shoved them back on the Way to their on-the-hour breaks. Bill Sharma: and Margot Loungway emerge from the pits of the library unrulfled, unsung, and unexploited. Libe Duel: fact vs. fictiong pudgy Geori Malenkov pitted against suave Steve Canyon-Carl Tyler and Paul Warner read the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Keeping pace with the surge of passing events and ideas, Judy Halperin perches on the yellow seat before the new books shelf on the second floor of the library.

Of Bluebook-haunted berlin Students Or he thinks of that thoughtless couple across the table who chuckled over their ,Review on the night before a vital philosophy blue book. If he closes his eyes, the senior can also bring to mind the multitude of dogs which have sneaked by forbidding barriers to stir up raucous laughter among the study-ridden students. The hounds' only rivals were the children Who, screaming outside the windows, occasionally injected a note of joy into the chilly rationality inside. By the time he reaches his final year, the Oberlin student is sure he has paid enough quarters for late reserve books to own half of the half-million books on stock. He has fought daily battles to maintain his place at the funnies section of the Plain.-Dealer, warding off the bulk of the football team determined to read the sports section. His most tumultuous struggles have been with himself, straining every muscle to keep his eyes focused on Plato, while the entire Building and Gro-unds Department erects a towering superstructure to change a light far over his head. A thousand facts learned, a thousand drinks of water, a thousand smokes before the metal relief of Andrew Carnegieg inspiration mixed with desperation: This is what the library means to the Oberlin student. RIGHT: Mr. ake Albri ht of the Carne ie Library staff defies the tempo of J g g modern times, as he dreams of a thousand weary faces passing by. BELOW: Dawn in the reserve room of the library: Bill Mcllrath trips in where angels fear to tread, a blatant manifestation of anti-intellectualism on the Oberlin campus.
