Tfze fllczsfefy One of the things that probably will be remembered by this year's graduates and all other Salisbury alumni is the close relationships that have been fostered among the students and their instructors. By profession, and of necessity, the Masters act in the capacity of teachers, leaders, and, most unpleasant of all, dis- ciplinarians, duties which, however, seem to take a back seat in favor of the close and potentially lasting friendships that exist between Master and boy. Some boys fail throughout their years at Salisbury to realize the existence of friends, not pedagogues, in the faculty, but those who do appreciate the opportunity of real friendships usually find the life at School more enjoyable, and what is more im- portant, more meaningful. One tradition of long standing in the School is that which prescribes that Masters wear black academic gowns in the classroom, a custom which preserves the distinction so necessary between teaching and informal association. We may remember our faculty members for their looks, personalized cliches, or other idiosyncracies, but if we remember them for no other reason, we will long have memories of their strong guidance and friendship.
