HE SNOWDRIFT Hail the school, we hail you Alma Mater! To you. we pledge our hearts and hopes anew; May victory attend May we defend Your name and standards ever true. CHORUS: O-O-O-College, Sno-o-ow College, Come friends this way with me Join our jolly company, O-O-O-College, Sno-o-ow College, Yes, we hail S. C., right royally. Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho; Don't you hear us loudly cheering For our banner as it proudly waves on high? O-O-O-College, Sno-o-ow College, Live long your name, your memory, Sno-o-ow College. Up the trail the emblem “S” is shining, Shining ’neath the clear blue sky; Friends are more dear; Clouds soon disappear; Hope is ever running high.

FOUNT OF TRUTH AND LEARNING A Few Facts The Sanpete Slake academy was organized under the direction of the stake presidency. Presidents Canute Peterson, Henry Beal and John B. Maiben. For a number of years there had been a sentiment expressed in favor of establishing such an institution of learning in Sanpete county, and inasmuch as Ephraim was the center, it was chosen as the place. So on November 5, 1888. the school was opened and courses were provided in preparatory and intermediate departments, with Alma Greenwood as principal and Miss Carrie Henry as assistant. These two persons acted in this capacity from 1888 to 1891. During the latter year George Christensen of Mt. Pleasant was selected for principal, with Prof. A. C. Lund as assistant. They served in these capacities but one year and were succeeded in 1892 by Prof. Newton E. Noyes and John Peterson, the former remaining as principal for 29 years—from 1892 to 1921. About 1897 Joseph Y. Jensen and Carrie Peterson were added to the faculty, and a little later Thomas A. Beal. Parley Nelson and William G. Barton. During the administration of Brother Noyes, the school gradually grew from a preparatory and intermediate high school to a six year normal course, four year high school, three year domestic science and art, and three year agriculture. In 1900 the name was changed to Snow Academy, and in 1917 the namo was again changed to Snow Normal College. In 1921, Wayne B. Hales was appinted as president of the institution and served until 1924. During Prof. Hales’ administration, the junior college department of arts and sciences was added, the name changed to Snow College, and the institution was admitted to the American Association of Junior Colleges. In 1924 President Milton H. Knudscn was appointed president, and the school now has 232 college students. At first the work of the academy was given on the top floor of the old Co-op store on Main street. About 1896 the school was moved to the North ward school house, where the normal and high school work was given. In 1898-99 the business department was added and the work was offered in one of the business houses on Main street. In the years 1903-04, the present building was complete. The gymnasium was completed in 1912. It is one of the best gymnasiums of its size in the slate. The gallery is equipped with an indoor race track. There are three roomy dressing rooms fully equipped. In addition there are store rooms for the varied play equipment. The state takes control of Snow College July 1, 1932, as provided for by House Bill 101. Editor’s Note If I print jokes in the Snowdrift, some people think the paper is frivolous. If I don't, they say it is too sophisticated or high-hatted and won't even read it. If I write all original matter, they say I lack variety. If I fill half the pages with articles from other college papers, I am lazy. If I run down news at its source, I am wasting time. If I don't, I am not attending to business. If I don’t print all contributions, I am partial. If I do. I lack discrimination. WANTED: A new editor. Statistics prove that exactly one half of all the participants in marriages each year are women. Page Two
