The year began one dismal Sunday afternoon as the freshman swarmed over the campus. It began against an excited background of shaved heads, beanies, and pep rallies. As orientation week progressed and the freshmen spent hours in the library taking seemingly useless, tedious tests, the excitement ended. . The campus took on a more normal com- plexion with the more or less willing return of the upperclassmen. Classes began and were then forgotten in the confusion of rush week. Football, homecoming, and Dixie Week came in quick succession. Christmas vacation brought rest, parties, and the Sugar Bowl; then final exams, term grades and resolutions to work harder next semester. Second semester meant basketball, Rebelee, baseball, spring formals, elections, sing-song, fret sweethearts, and finally graduation. That was the year, and this is its record.
