C R O Q Ei us The Alumnae Association of the University of Rochester ln June, l906, the Alumnae of the University of Rochester formed an Association to promote the interests of the University and to maintain a spirit of fellowship among its Alumnae. Those who have received a degree at the University are admitted into active membership in the Association and any others who have completed a year's Work before leaving the University may become associate members. - There are two meetings of the Association each year, one during the last week in December and the other on the day before Commencement in June, both of which meetings serve as informal reunions. . The Alumnae have been especially interested in the raising of funds for the Anthony Memorial Building, not only realizing how greatly it is needed by the women students, but feeling that their share in it will be a most appro- priate expression of their appreciation of the opportunities which Miss Anthony made possible. To aid' in this work a Shakspere Musical was given in 1906 and in i908 Loves Labors Lost was presented on the campus, while in other years the individual members have endeavored to raise' money for this fund. l29l

QROQ. EUS The Genesee Tho' many fair and famous streams Beneath the sun there be, Yet more to us than any seems Our own dear Genesee. We love her banks and stately falls, For to our minds they bring Our dear old Alma lVlater's halls, Where sweetest memories cling. No castled crags along her way Romantic splendors castg No fabled or historic lay Recalls the golden past. But more than battlementecl walls, Or legends they may bear, Are Alma lVlater's vine-clad halls, And memories lingering there. As Hows the river, gathering force, Along her steadfast way, May we along life's devious course Grow stronger day by day. And may our hearts, where'er we ro Forever loyal be, To our beloved college home Beside the Genesee. IZSI am
