From the Editors It is an honor to present the 90th edition of the Kynewisbok — and in every sense of the word, this Year in Review is the K-book of old, and of the future. There is much to be said for tradition. And, in the Year in Review, we’ve tried to capture the best traditions of the University of Denver. If there was ever any tradition to the K-book, we believe that you'll find it inside. Du’s finest athletes, its Pioneers, its newsmakers and vistas are all present And so is the spirit. As students, we know what the University of Denver means to us as a community — students, faculty, staff and alumni. That certain spirit which represents a feeling inside of us would be found in any year-end project. Many people have worked hard to produce this book. Weve thought about what should be included, and in what form. We’ve worked until the small hours of the morning, not unlike editors in decades past. And we’re reassured to read in the 1947 D-book that the editors of that K-book were struggling to get their book back before graduation. Wc can all see the future of the Kynewisbok in the pages that follow. There may be changes in style and form. Even this year, many have pushed for a video yearbook — one which will literally record the images of day-to-day life, this time on a different sort of film. But this future is simply a reflection of the past In the K-books of the future, the University tradition will be a constant This tradition is important But what makes tradition? Wc believe it is spirit. The Pioneer spirit Wc present this spirit to you now. The Editors
