The 1942 Pandora whs particularly fortunate in having several ready made themes at its disposal. As state and nationwide interest in the institution of higher learn- ing with the oldest state-granted charter in the United States was aroused, due to publicity given by actions of the Governor and Board of Regents last year, a review of the University ' s history, rich in tradition and incident, and inspiring to a lover of progress, naturally suggested itself. At the same time, the second World War and the consequent rise of patriotic fervor, with its attendant possibility of compulsory military training for male students at Georgia, proved a fertile field for ideas. The staff eventually decided to use both these subjects, with the rise and progress of the University as the major theme, ,uid patriotism as a decorative motif. Informality has been stressed wherever possible, and candid snapshots have been distributed profusely throughout the book, in order to add interest and to make the material more readily understandable. Chronological arrangement was discarded in favor of the old division arrangement, so that various topics of more special interest to some than to others, might be easily located. And, finally, an effort has been made to enlist the varied talents of as many as possible of the student body, so that the 1942 Pandora might be, in the truest sense, what it purports to be — a representative yearbook of the students of the University of Georgia.
