We TGRY CF YE I 4 - Once upon a time there V . 1, li . l i f was a growing, progressive 3 . 'H institution. Its name was f '. 7 f i University of Tulsa but its it , 1 , , 7 friends all called it T. U., -' ' for short. if Along about September 10, 1947, the doors of its many modified Gothic buildings were opened, and 4,000 students began studies-they purchased books and began to spend long hours in engineering courses, fine arts, arts and sciences and business -and some of them even studied courses in law at T. U.'s Downtown Division. There were various groups within the walls of this fine organization. First there was the freshman class of 750. Some of these freshmen pledged sororities and fraternities, some turned to independent associations, some held a class election in the fall and later in the winter gave a novel movie dance. ' Then. there were 1,000 sophomores. They had the year before. They, too, M v .f in' I ' gave a party for the school, , 3' elected their .own officers 3. Riu JN. rdf, but since they were the 1. ,W-gi Ytyrfl' I spent much of their time just studying and largest class of all, they making good grades! Next was the junior class of 625. Realizing their positions as upperclassmen, this group, guided by its officers, gave 5 T. U. students a most suc- U .4 1 cessful after-the-game Hay- Il' seed Hop. i And finally, there were -b n' the seniors. A class of 400, Xi this group also gave T. U. it J' time, effort and encouragement to make 1947- 48 an important one in the university's history. These groups mingled well and managed easily to fill our campus calendar with memor- able events of every kind. They planned parties, ' my picnics, hayrides, dances, A 1 parades and sports events. - Not only fun was had, but I these same eds and Coeds settled down to studies cz p through the year, and ac- ii cepted nuizzes and exams from faculty members in an intellectual manner. All these students seemed to find a place, and a job--and when the year was finished, each person seemed to have found satisfaction, friend- ship, understanding and greater knowledge. This congenial atmosphere and the students themselves have made it possible for us to tell you, the story of a year at the University of Tulsa. af
