COMMITTEES conduct investigation and hash out problems too complex to handle in larger meets. MORTAR BOARDS take time out for coffee and some fun. Man, by nature, is a gregarious animal. But on the UA campus, this phenomenon is intensihed to proportions encompassing every student in a most complex system of both formal and informal gather- ings. Although meetings of governmental bodies all over campus often run to several score members, small committees gathered under palm trees or in Greek house or dorm basements are probably more numerous. Subjects generally run anywhere from last night's date to a formulation of school policy... COMMON bond is shared by participants in the successful Night Club' as they watch a friend's comedy act in the University Auditorium

. The student is the pulsebeat of a university. Without him its purpose is meaningless, its buildings are mere silhouettes. A student is the heart, the life, the symbol of college. Here on the campus of the University of Ari- zona, and here on the pages of its yearbook, is evi- denced the unique metamorphosis which takes place every year. It is a subtle change, without benefit of ceremony or tradition, but one through which an individual must pass before he becomes this intricate part of a college society. It requires more than the payment of fees or the passing of tests. Much more. To define the prescription that fuses student and college is impossible. Definitions are awkward, for words can only touch the intangible process. Words cannot penetrate the feeling hidden in the moment a student senses pride in both himself and his school for the first time. Nor the warmth. It is a personal thingg he would not tell his roommate. But it is that moment that contains the transformation, and only then do the sacrifices-the time, the work, and the money-which pay the price of education seem worthwhile. Only then does the value of senti- ment and getting along with others weave its way into college life. Here then is the University-its students. Here on these pages is the meaning of education. Here is time, caught in the swift moment of four years, which blends the symbols of hope, trust, and knowledge .... WARM DESERT nights are an added incentive to the social life of University students. A formal dance is a spe- cial occasion here, as on any campus, but might easily end up with everyone singing around a desert campfire. 7
