UNIVERSITY COLLEGE 4T1 PERMANENT EXECUTIVE Left to Right: BILL COWAN, Pfresidentg SHEILA SCOTT, Vic-e-Presiflentg MARY Gow, Secrg- tary, BRUCE WILLIAMS, Tireasufrer. Message from the Class 4-T1 T times we might have thought of starting such a message as this with something like Now at long last , but this year has made us feel that it should begin All too soon comes the prospect of graduation. For the thought of admitto te ad gradum comes to us with a distinct shock, and we realize that the comfortable, happy, sheltered environment of the University will soon be a memory. The tense, nerve-wracking days of May probably will not be missed. But what of the Rotunda, the Follies, Lit elections, walking across the green campus between lectures on an April day? We now remember the warnings by others that college days are the happiest in one's life. Too true, and now we are to leave them behind. In compensation, it is with some warm feeling of achievement that we look back on our efforts as a clss to further the life of the University through the activities of University College. We like to think that we helped in fostering a wholesome college spirit, for many members of the year took an exceptionally intense interest in this. In sports our interfaculty record is on the way back to the first place of which Professor lVIacAndrew likes to talk. The Arts Ball has been resuscitated to become one of the most popular formals on the campus and to approach the unassailable reputation of the Follies. New U.C. songs, more joint meetings, and a greatly improved Under- graduate. Of all the years in which to graduate, this perhaps is one of the most crucial. This term more than last has seen' military training for the boys and war work for the girls. It is a grim world into which this class enters, but let it serve only as a greater challenge to us as graduates to make the best use of all that university life has given'to us. l31l
