lv , . The Cohongoroota Throughout the years everything changes, even the Wild Goose River more commonly known as the Po- tomac stream in l9lO when the junior class of Shep- herd College State Normal School published a work ot seventy-seven pages bound in suede. From l92O until the end of that decade, the senior class contin- ued the publication at this same work - the Cohongo- roota. The class ot l9ll derived the name Cohongoroota from the Indian name for the Potomac. ln the early years, the. Co-honk of the wild geese as they flew over the stream on their yearly cycles south or north was a common sound to all inhabitants. From l9lO until l9l2, the Cohongoroota sported the legend All Quiet Along the Potomac on its cover. Later, this legend became less adequate and was demoted to the title page. Still later, Quiet completely lost its reign at Shepherd and the legend was completely removed from the book. Progress, coupled with changes in the student body and faculty, resulted in a more lively campus. ln the last two years, the Co-Hank too has worn a new look. Color has been added, the cover designs have became abstracts instead ot the old standard pictures and emblems have been added showing a more creative spirit in tune with contemporary art. Nevertheless, regardless of all changes, Shepherd still remains Nestled in a quiet hamlet 'Neath the azure blue .... Close beside Potomac waters, Ot historic fame, Only the Co-honks of the wild geese and the quiet are missing on the campus today.
