Thick, padded athletes hurtling across sun-splashed football fields and supple, pir- ouetting dancers suspended above spot-lit stages. Pressed together revelers tipping beer mugs in smoke-filled, music-mad barrooms and backpack- burdened bodies shuffling towards a lonely light at an all-night cafe. Roly-poly busi- nessmen robed in suits of alumni black and gold and wide-eyed visiting students cased in bright high school letter jackets. The trumpets of Marching Mizzou heralding the arrival of another homecoming and the tolls of the Memorial Union sounding the passage of another hour, another day, another year. College is characterized not by brilliant flashes of self- revelation but by quiet moments of self-discovery - moments illuminated through the prism of books, teachers, activities, room- mates, friends. Learning about the world and about onehs self is a long and difficult process that college can both accelerate and ease. Adjusting to a new environ- ment, compromising in group situations and disciplining one- self to meet deadlines are skills developed in college that endure long after the last exam has been taken. But once that exam has been completed, one under- stands that the person who entered the University is not the person who is leaving it - and realizes that the University existed long before he arrived and will exist long after he has left. And so the visitor knew it was time to push on. No more class lectures, interminable lines, pop quizzes, Heidelberg happy hours, pre- registration problems 01' Missouri Fight Songs. It seemed the days had been long but the years short, that much had been completed but so much more needed to be accomplished. New challenges now lay ahead. It was time to vacate -- and make way for a new wave of occupants. As dusk settled on Columbia, the Visitor piled into a car filled with memorabilia and memories, drove through the now familiar streets, reached the highway, gave one last look and was gone.
