0 WheteeH }i tif-ei ht The Class of 1958 has achieved considerable distinction in its four years at Sweet Briar. When the members of this class were freshmen, they set a high scholastic standard for themselves early in their college career by placing more students on Freshman Honors than any previous class had done. The record was broken again when Junior Honors were announced in 1956. During that same academic year eleven members of the present senior class studied abroad in Scotland, France, Spain, and Switzerland. Scholastic feats aside, the Class of 1958 has gained an outstanding reputation in extra-curricular activities. In 1956 they presented the Court of Louis XIV during May Day weekend; in 1957 they published The Briar Patch with Alice in Wonderland as its theme. In December of their senior year came the climactic production of W. H. Auden ' s For the Time Being, replacing the tradi- tional but outmoded senior show. The Christma Oratorio was a milestone, and has set a precedent which will be remembered with admiration and, By playing at ches;. then, we may learn foresiKhl, which looks a little into futurity. —Benjamin Frankli, indeed, with reverence, by the Sweet Briar com- munity for many years to come. When the senior class accepted the privilege of using the Golden Stairs they also accepted many responsibilities — leadership of Student Government, aid in the organization of the Science Symposium, management of the Sweet Briar News. They were the second class to be allowed to have cars on cam- pus for the entire year. Other Sweet Briar students are grateful to the senior class not only for rides into Lynchburg but also for the maturity they have shown in accepting responsibility — responsi- bility in keeping cars, in using imagination in pub- lications and productions, in establishing new trends in the curriculum and in student government. The example of the Class of 1958 will not soon be for- gotten. Left to Right: Kemper, Secretary: Svkes, Tn-a-urcr: Graham, I ' lce-PratJenl: S. Davis, President. 2S
