Swarthmore College - Halcyon Yearbook (Swarthmore, PA)

In four years at Swarthmore, we saw the end of an old-era and hopefully the beginning of another. We were part of neither. Some of us didn ' t care what became of M. L. 4, what became of Crum parties, or what became of the old Swarthmore songs. Some did, but all of us realized that they were gone. Whatever the traditions that replace them, we won ' t be here to share them, and for the most part, we were unable to share the old ones. But, as we said before, some things never change. There is a pervading attitude at Swarthmore that will never change, but perhaps due to the Commissions it will slacken a bit. The campus will always be beautiful, especially in the spring, and perhaps there will soon be time enough to enjoy it. Perhaps in the next few years people will be able to write for the Phoenix not because some day they hope to be editor, but because they enjoy doing it. Perhaps people will be able to get interested again, like they were this year. Swarthmore still has beards and blue jeans, but the people wearing them are a little different. Swarthmore will continue to have an Honors Program, but probably now the people it produces will be a little different. Swarthmore will continue to have its traditions, and they too will be a little different. And probably every spring people will play stretch in front of the library. Swarthmore, we could have had such a damn good time together. — Dave Cohen
