Dr. and Mrs, Dodds Greet Freshmen at Reception Class of 1943 RINCETONS classes through the past year tasted of the usual varied offerings of the Princeton scene, gathering through their life at Nassau a rich trove of impressions, made up of the minutiae of living as well as of its great events. Traditional class functions, play openings, the Palmer square development, the human interestw of Princeton-all this will make up as vital a portion of their college heritage as their courses and reading. Novitiates in the life of Princeton, the Class of ,43 descended on Tigertown from all direc- tions, trundling suitcases out of the P. J . and B., or assuming sudden cosmopolitan airs before astonished parents in cars with license plates from all over the country, and immediately were plunged into the black-tie-and-dink status of Princeton freshmen through the decades. First of their cares was the ubiquitous sales- man, who pounced on them with persuasion and persistence, obligingly willing to sell a complete repertory of the necessities of Nassau life, with a modest smattering of its superflui- ties as well. The aid of a provident Freshman Orientation Committee of upperclassmen help- ed in the struggle against these hordes, as well as in the more important process of entering smoothly into the routine of their new exist- ence. Conscientiously they avoided the for- bidden precincts of the walk in front of Nassau Hall, speculatively conjuring up vague and violent upperclassmen continually lurking in the environs with vengeful intent. Sudden fear struck their hearts at the on- slaught of irst uniforms, and busy rumor re- minded them that discouraging proportions Freshmen Leaving Chapel 341 of every entering class failed to remain within its ranks until graduation. Uniforms passed, they went through their paces in the Freshman competitions leading to positions in undergraduate organizations. Choosing their fields in the wide range of selec- tion stretching between the grueling six weeks grind that leads to Princetonian board mem- bership and the unhurried at-your-leisure Tiger board attainment, they discovered a new facet of Princeton existence.
