Union University - Lest We Forget Yearbook (Jackson, TN)

There were a few people that I never really got to know while I was at Union. Oh, usually we greeted each other when we met on cam- pus. They were friencily to me and probably that ' s why their faces are so vivid to me now, yet 1 can hardly remember their names. I met so many people at registration. And then all those faces at the All-Greek party dur- ing Orientation. I talked with a lot of recruiters about teaching positions too. They all asked the same questions. Who was that guy from Memphis, anyway? Every time I passed the phone booth he was using it — what a social life he must have had! And car waxing was a favorite outdoor sport for the non-athletes. Oh yes, we did go to classes, really quite often; and we checked out many books, but usually more than we used.

Students were always working on projects for class. Even late in the afternoon you ' d find them in the chemistry lab doing experiments. I went to the ceramics department one day to look around. It was fascinating, i was sur- prised to see just how good some of the students were at creating things. Art students worked hard too. Mr. Carmichael was always there to help them. And the mu- sic majors — they were always singing and or playing. Of course there were students like Wally who seemed to have nothing to do but look for problems. Still, these students had a place on our campus too.
