University of Alabama - Corolla Yearbook (Tuscaloosa, AL)

Let us dispense with the usual conventional mush-and-milk sentimentality that one is accustomed to find under the heading ' Foreword ' or ' Greeting ' in a volume like this. We offer you our book without apologies and without excuses. It is the result, gentle reader, of several months of toil and hair-graying worry. If you like it, we are very glad indeed; If you don ' t like it, we are sorry. It has many defects, we know; and probably, if one should look through it from cover to cover, one wouldn ' t find a single thing that could not be criticized severely. But when you are tempted to ' knock ' it and when you feel like saying what you could have done were you the editor, kindly remember the Golden Rule. Please keep this in mind, then: If you don ' t like this book, at least refrain from saying so when we are around. 1911 COROLLA

The year is 1971. Everything is moving to a more interrelated world, everything but man. Man must still face life him- self, for he, himself, is the only one that can decide his own future. The University of Alabama is no different than the rest of the world. Each student is a number, and each must take care of himself. A person is himself, and must be true unto himself in order to exist. His independence he cherishes. His desolation he mourns.
