We griped aliout all-afternoon labs but we couldn ' t help being fascinated by the innards ' of our frogs ajid flowers. Outside reading in Social Studies seemed endless, but we soon adjusted to the long hours in the library, and the inn became an indis- pensable break. We wondered if we could ever learn to recognize what seemed hundreds of syni- jihonifs. and sjient hours in music listening when tests caught u]i with us. AVe were frantic over last minute term ])apers but somehow managed to get them in on time in spite of our worries. We .stayed up all night in the transfoi ' nied. tomb-like quiet of a smoke-filled Counnons. and ordered a cheeseburgfi ' and a milk shake at the date house so we wouldn ' t have to waste study time by chang- ing our blue jea]i for dinner. We couldn ' t wait for vacations. Ijut June it was hard to believe v Were already sojiliomores. As .sophomores we really felt necessary to the action of Sweet Briar.

Some of us went abrcjad and studit but no matter how we studied, what we studied now had real meaning for us, our i-ings and eyed the (ioldcii Stairs longingly, but the idea of compreheiisi es made us wondei- if we Weren ' t better off as juniors. Senior year we were the ones. We put on a Broadway show witli an e;Lse that belied the bard work behind it. With coniprehensives just a short time away we went to seminars faithfully and wondered how it was possible to grasp so much. But by the time we stopped to catch our breath, we were sit- ting on the Golden Stairs, di- plomas in hand, singing Oh look up here and see us ' for the last time.
