From The Editor Yearbooks are supposed to review the year: the faces, the places, the good times, and the crimes. Yearbooks are always expected to capture the essence of a place. Well, Oberlin is a hard place to put your finger on. This year my finger has landed on many characteristics of Oberlin. It has been stuck in Old Barrows tapioca, smashed in the library door, been caught pointing at the wrong person several times, stepped on by some Oberlin faculty and typed almost 129,000 words on a manual typewriter. Now, its stuck in my ear; for one person cannot possibly describe the Oberlin experience. But while the years at Oberlin pass differently for each person, I think that there are a lot of experiences shared by the student body: as a whole, as a passel of small groups, and as an army of promising individuals. The touble with any yearbook is that it cannot cover everything, and cannot always depict events as they really were. But I am not about to concede that this book does not cover everything. If it has not, I will say that we have tried to put together as many aspects of Oberlin life as possible. That means that this book does not necessarily ignore the existence of rainy days, No Entries, veal parmesan, and 3.2 beer, but just because we have not dwelt on them does not mean that we are denying that we must lose as well as win, cry as well as laugh. Usually, we would all rather do the latter in both cases. Therefore this book has got a lot to say about the good things in Oberlin: springtime, academic quality, Wilder Bowl, memorable professors, and the like. These qualities are ones which have existed at Oberlin for years, and we have tried to show a bit of that, too. For as Oberlin again faces another decade, we know that there are certain things here which we will all be able to remember and hold on to. 80 hold on, folks. Ben Bolte Co-Editor
