Professor Erma Rolar In September, 1957, a tall, dark-haired boy named Fred Sweikert entered Shippensburg State College along with 329 other humble fresh- men. The same tall, dark-haired boy left Ship- pensburg a little more than a year later. Fred Sweikert will be remembered for many things and in many ways-for the way he walked, and dressed, and spokeg for his athletic prowess, his easy social grace and cheerfulnessg but re- membered mostly because he was a down-to- earth fellow, a friendly sort of person, a regular u . g is we, the class of 1961, receive our diplomas at graduation, we will know he is there too, in the memories and hearts of all his many friends and fellow classmates. In Memoriam A shocked college received word last March of the sudden death of Professor Erma Rolar. During her life Miss Rolar had tirelessly devoted her energy to Shippensburg. She served for sev- eral years as principal of Rowland Laboratory School before assuming her position in the col- lege Social Studies Department. In spite of her busy schedule, Miss Rolar was never too busy to have conferences with her studentsg she made it a point to know her pupils. Student scholastic activities received her enthusiastic endorsement. It seems strange, said a senior, not to see her at her desk. That's one thing about Miss Rolar, though. She was always so much a part of us that she'll always be here. Fred Sweikert ,M I5 ,x

101' Edlflflflffl Ninety years ago this month, May, 1871, a cornerstone was laid for a brick building which was to be used in the training of teachers. Since 1871, the college on the hill has provided advanced training for thousands of high-school graduates. This training has been the constitution-the framework-of their professional lives. This consti- tution is a dynamic thing. Changes are constantly being made, curri- cula are being revampedg expansion plans are in progress, personnel changes are frequent as degrees are granted three times yearly, and places are made for new students. An integral article of this academic constitution is the top-flight academic program of the college. Another article is the close interrelationships among students, faculty, admin- istration, and non-instructional personnel. In spite of its growing numbers, Shippensburg retains its personal, friendly quality. Organi- zations of all types to serve students' interests are a vital part of this constitution. Not to be forgotten as part of this framework are special activities which broaden personal contacts and cultural horizons. All of these elements constitute a well-rounded college career. Although various aspects of college policies and building plans will be necessarily amended to meet future needs, the constitution will still be recognized and appreciated by the graduating senior as he joins the ranks of 6,000 living alumni, who are indebted to Shippensburg for their professional framework.
