A School Is A school is a part of life. It is— where we begin to learn, where we succeed, and where we fail ... where we find friends and make enemies, where we laugh, cry, and love . .. where teachers are—good ones we learn from, bad ones we laugh at, indifferent ones we ignore . . . where we first discover what we are and what life is .. . what we work until midnight for, get up at dawn for, sacrifice our health for... A School is a conference after school, an after-game dance, a chain letter, an hour of detention, a pep fest, a fire alarm, a study hall, a Tootsie Pop, a place to learn, a place to live, a part of life. A yearbook records that life. Sheldon Shaeffer

An Explanation and a Credit The 1963 ECHOWAN is a new book—from the placement of the page numbers to the size of the type. But the basic change is due to a chance paging through a journalism magazine. In it was the story of the Cincinnatian, a prize-winning yearbook emphasizing unusual but greatly flexible layouts. This is the style that the ECHOWAN Staff adopted for use in this year's book. The staff also decided that they would not bind the yearbook to a clearly defined theme. Instead, they would try to emphasize the moods and character of the school. For this reason captions and copy are de-empha-sized and, when appropriate, eliminated. Furthermore, because clubs do not exist merely for yearbook pictures, but instead for a definite purpose, I decided to remove many of the group pictures in order to show more of the actual activities of the clubs. The staff also wish to express their great thanks to the yearbook photographer, Mr. Cliff Wilder, for his expert work and his constant service. An added detail of this yearbook was the competition within the art classes for the design of the cover. Mr. Lcegering and I chose the present design by Louise Klingel from the thirty that were entered, seme of which are shown at the left. This then is the 1963 ECHOWAN—the product of many hours of many people—a yearbook, certainly, with flaws, but not so much from carelessness as from newness. Sheldon Shaeffer Editor
