Awareness Ceads Zo Action Aware of what is happening, the Ripon College Student in 1968 is typified by what he is doing, both on the campus and off. More than ever. 1968 has been the year for student voice and student action. Student concern for his government, his studies, his activities and his worth has become the central theme of life for Ripon College, and the Crimson reflects this increased awareness in its pages. As we portray the student and his life at Ripon. we will emphasize the increased awareness of the campus, of the student body, and of the individual. It should be said that the import of the new year has been this new sharpening of view. 5

More active than ever, the Student becomes an increasingly important part of the campus. Ac Non typifies the direction of student interest as he becomes more involved with the curriculum and the administration of the school. For the good and the bad. the student is challenging more than ever before the nature and purpose of his school and demanding meaningful answers. His search for these answers is an active one. both individually and as a group. With this chal- lenge has come a re-evaluation of many of the traditions that have dictated the relationships of student to student and professor to student. 4

Ingraham Hall, partially removed for the construction of a new classroom building, has become the visual'' forum for the campus where the new awareness finds one of the many outlets. With the kind of humor possible only with a well- read. well prepared audience, the Flower-Pow- er” wall became early in our year t he story of IVItat’s .Happening. And uha 's happening is that every voice is participating in shaping what is to come. Due +c. $BSS 6
