They are mere items in the course of school events. The mrnotony of academic life is little disturbed by graduation. Com- mencement day is largely a traditional factor, many schools dropping it altogether. This fact indicates the rapidly decreasing importance of classes as they approach graduation. Therefore the only class enjoy- ing the full confidence and respect cf the faculty and board of regents and the envy of the other classes is the FRESHMAN CLASS. The standing cf classes decreases as graduation clay approaches. The embryonic is always more interesting than the finished product. The above is enough to indicate the lcgic of our position. But there' are people for Whom logic Hliath no charms. For such people We have an .empirical argument. The board of regents some years ago looked off over the territory tributary to the Platteville Normal and saw with prophetic vision the approach of the present FRESHMAN Cmss. E251

They hied themselves away to Madison, and there made known their discovery to the legislature. Immediately all current business was put aside and a law was passed providing for the construction of a Grand New Normal Buildingt' to be completed in time for this FRESHMAN CLASS. And now the class is here, the building is here, and each has adjusted itself to the other. VVe refrain from recalling the honors which have been heaped upon this class during the year. Vile make no reiteration of their successes and victories. Their sympathies go out to the other classes. The freshman class would not embarrass them by cataloguing their own merits. These are but matters of current events which he who runs may read. They congratulate their sister classes upon the good fortune which has been theirs-namely, to have been in the pres- ence of the FRESHMAN CLASS. iVith condolence for them in their defeats, and toleration for them in their verdancy, the freshman class of 1908 wishes them godspeed. - 'flnfii E171
