Spirit is the most intangible aspect of a student ' s growth, for it is one that he assumes almost without realizing it. Spirit pervades the University campiis and becomes its atmosphere: spirit that is the excitement of the LSU game despite any odds; spirit that is a bonfire, a sacrifice to the gods ; spirit that is drinking, toasting the Green Wave. When a student comes to the Tulane campus, he slowly becomes a part of the feeling that spreads silently and untouchably over the University; he slowly takes on a deep and unbreakable sense of pride in being a Tulane stu- dent. This pride is the first checkpoint of his growth, the first mature identifica- tion that he can make. This pride remains with him forever: as he grows older, he guards within his spirit his allegiance to Tulane. Use only when score exceeds 63-0. One tiling about Tulanians — always full of spirit.

The primary function and responsibility of a Univer- sity is the fostering of the intellect. A student comes to college with the mind and background of a youth; when he leaves, he should have acquired the quick and natural intelligence that characterizes the college grad- uate. It is part of the essence of a University to provide the student ' s mind adequate opportunity for growth: like an infant, it grows quickly if sometimes sporadi- cally, always in many directions. But it is part of the essence of the student to develop the capabilities for finding knowledge wherever it may lie. He learns to study efficiently, to absorb what he reads. He develops a taste for the fine arts, for literature and the theater. And when he finally graduates, his mind is the firm and polished intellect of the man, anxious to know, willing to learn, never satisfied with its limits. One should have a regular place io study. Well stacked, well informed. 24
