Introduction. G ETWEEN that midnight hour when a band of ' 01 Freshmen danced around a feebly burning bonfire, in honor of I flj L their class number upon the tank, and that hour when these same fellows leave the halls of old Purdue as gradu- ■■ nf ates, there is a stretch of four eventful years. I H From the Freshman standpoint, these four years seemed to stretch away into the distance. We looked for- ward to the latter end of the Senior year as to the culmination of a long and difficult, though pleasant, experience. Bright plans were laid, and the future was filled with visions of success, due to our untiring and enthusiastic industry. But, as time passed, the enthusiasm with which we viewed our chosen professions from a distance became blunted, as the tedious work of developing details became more and more arduous. One by one the air-castles we had built vanished. It might appear from this that out retrospect should be gloomy ; but it is not. We have learned a few things — that we do not know much ; that we know more than we did ; and that there is an infinite store of facts still before us, unlearned. And we have had a lot of fun. It is true that we have a future before us — a future concerning which we have built up some palaces that resemble in general outline those charming castles which we built in Spain during our early Freshman days. But, before tiirning our undivided attention to the future, we wish to look back once more over our college life, and, in this book, to preserve its history from the encroaching sea of oblivion.
