Colorado Unwersity is for a time a home to many men. The Flatirons, Varsity Lake, sandstone, and red tiled roofs become a part of experience. There is the familiar walk from Hellems in the fading light of the evening when the mountains stand in might and grandeur before a dusky sky.

A busy year with a rapidly expanding campus, a Fair Buff Plan that didn ' t get support, a deferred rush pro- posal, new fall-out shelters, a dangerous prowler, and several earthquakes. Even finals were quite confusing; no one seemed to know how long they should last! 1963, different and yet very much the same. Friends met at the Sink, a Homecoming torch-light parade brought back memories of past years, CU Days were fun with cups running over, Mrs. Pickett wrote her usual letters, tuition took another climb.
