Only forty years after Sewanee was founded some- one made this astute observation in the 1898 Cap and Gotvn, Roughly speaking, the Academs maybe divided into 4 classes: the students, the athletes, the society men, and those who don ' t do anything in particular. Considering the delicacy of their constitutions (judging, of course, from the ' excused account of illness ' in the Proctor ' s books ) , the mortality of this body is very small. Then there is the Cap and Gown of 1918 which pub- lished the following, When the country called Sewanee responded nobly. Seventy-five per cent of our last year ' s student-body are with the colors. ' The Rovers of the South ' now rove the world, and in almost every branch of the service may be found representatives of the Church University set upon a hill . . . The spirit of the Old South, risen from the hunts of the storied past, again is making glorious hi.story.

Oy.j 3 1:- 0,t ' 3 Always the Cap and Gown is intrinsically dedicated to some graduating class and the memory of some higher ideal for which that class hoped to stand. In this sense the ' 68 Cap and Goivn is no different from any year- book of the past. Specifically we wish to honor those who will graduate in nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, for their capacity to appreciate the great adyenture of existence and for the contributions which we hope they nll make. Yet in 1968 we haye reason not only to distinguish our own. but to celebrate a century of distinguished men — their causes and their contributions. It is this year that marks the very special anniversary of the one hundredth graduating class of the University of the South. Instead of devising a new thesis on old themes as is done proverbially year after every year, the 1968 Cap and Goiin would like partly to resurrect the words and emotions of preceding classes. This affords a short his- torical summary and envokes an enevitable comparison.
