I ' ' ho would have believed that the first snowfall would happen as early as mid-November, or that 500-plus stu- dents would enroll in a return of Janu- ary term? The year wasn't without its unusual happenings. Dedications of the Alumni Center and the Williamson Nursing facility highlighted homecoming, and more than 30 students spent January re- hearsing West Side Story with the Shawnee Little Theater. Others trav- elled during the year to Llrumqi, Chi- na, initiating a new exchange pro- gram with Xinjiang Llniversity. All of these happenings were different, yet the same. They represent a principle which builds toward a classical education - an education that requires students to enroll in Unified Studies which in- cludes foreign language, arts and sci- ences and religion. lt also represents an education that i- .U S' X has a student- teacher ratio of 13 , to 1 and an educa- tion that provides I g i a tutoring service E. for those having -'E't difficulty with X classes. lt is for these reasons that every year is a classic, no matter how typi- cal or unusual, and our education is a classic example. 1 H HA CLASSIC --ja EXAMPLE
