FOREWORD All the world's a stage and all men and women merely players. The curtain has about closed on our play. We're having our final encore. This may have been an amateur production; there were forgotten cues, dim lights. Sometimes the scenery was not in harmony with the act, and often we were not in harmony with the directors. The applause was inaudible at times, but we presented it and lived the roles. After all, it was our play. Our scene was the Campus, as is our BLUE HEN theme. It has been our purpose to sketch this background, to renew your acquaintances with the complete cast, and to bring back the significant scenes which you have witnessed throughout the year. We wish we could print each one's individual lines, improvement, and growth during the four-year rehearsal; but this you can weave from what we have given you. You are now about to assume your professional role, but these past preparations will be with you forever, We hope, in the years to come, the cherished memories of these meaningful times will linger among the pages of the 1956 BLUE HEN.

DEDICATION Considering the climate of the times and this stage of our lives, we of the 1556 Blue Hen dedicate this book to FAITH Look at this word; think about it now and throughout the days to come. You have developed in many phases over the past few years;, but there have been some empty, neglected spots, some unanswerable questions, There is the unpredictable future, waiting. Has the feeling behind that one word been de- veloped? Set your goals. Establish your standards. Work hard to fulfill these ideals. Yes, there will be stumbling blocks along every step of the path, Strive on, however: your education ond achievements will always be present. But behind all, a strong foundation for life in God, in the future, in yourself, in your work, in others keep FAITH.
