WmSiHi The record of one year at Sullins must, of necessity, include ac- counts of a wide variety of activities, ranging all the way from a sandwich and a coke” at the Hut to the birthday dinners and the for- mal banquets at the Hotel Bristol, or from Lake Day in the Fall to the formiol Proms in the Spring. With its 269-acre campus, Sullins naturally places the emphasis on out-of-door life. Sullins girls hike and ride, swim and play tennis. Sometimes they study and write letters on the campus. Sometimes they just loaf. On almost any sunny afternoon, one may find a group of them on the Hut steps. From the opening of the college in the Fall until the final days of the Commencement period, they follow a well-balanced plan of work and recreation, including many social occasions both formal and informal.
