History is OUR years looked at in prospect seem a long periodg in retrospect, an amazingly short time. Members of 1902 realize only too well that they are soon to become members of the body of the alumni. New scenes, new prob- lems, new associations will take the place of the many things which have interested us during our college days. The Seniors feel that theirs has been an honorable record. We have done our best to uphold the good name of Trinity, whether in a scholastic, athletic or social way. NVe have endeavored to make the term, Trinity man, synonymous with gentleman. As Freshmen our exuberant spirits often got the better of us, but we were sorry to have caused the suspension of the entire Sophomore class until we realized that the disgrace so slightly affected that august body, that they had the mis- taken idea that they were enjoying a six weeks' Vacation. Thus good may come out of evil. The following year we took in hand the underclass discipline, forgetting in the customary way our own needs in that direction. Pipes took the place of cigar- ettes, and we fully understood how important a part of Trinity College we were. The growth of the feeling of dignity and importance was not so great when we became Juniors as it had been the previous year. This was the time that we really used our brains by the study of ethics and the compilation of the IVY. Now we are Seniors! We have reached the goal long sought for! Take our word for it, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen, this sublime state which you aspire to is not altogether idealg it is too near the end of college life. During our stay at Trinity many changes have taken place. The Natural History building has been erected, and the library enlarged and made efficient under the present able management. Two fraternities have recently acquired handsome new homes which add greatly to the attractiveness of the college colony. There seems to be no reason why there should not be in a few years a Double Trinity. 1 It is with great regret that we chronicle the fact that with the departure of 1902, one of Trinity's best instructors also leaves, Dr. William Lispenard Robb, a man for whom we have the greatest respect and affection. We ,wish Professor Robb the success in his new field which the several members of the class hope for in their new undertakings. E. J. C. 24
