Anyone who asserts that Upsala College is stationary should not speak about this insti- tution because he knows nothing about it. Few organizations have changed their en- vironment as successfully as has Upsala Col- lege, excepting of course, the army. Starting at Brooklyn in cramped style, it found its facilities quickly growing inade- quate. So, lock, stock, and barrel Upsala mi- ,grated to Kenilworth, New Jersey, and out- grew that so rapidly that the college authori- ties really started looking for a campus. East Orange offered just that, along both sides of Prospect Street. And the result waSe well, see for yourself! According to reliable reports, the only thing left at Kenilworth is a sunken bell. But no fraternity pledgees have as yet found it. East Orange is an ideal place for a college of Upsalafs dimension. Hilly and suburban, this town affords a campus Which stands in pleasant contrast with the campuses of big city institutions. Who has not been charmed by the almost lyric beauty of a spring afternoon on the lawn before Commons? Who has not mar- velled at the silent glitter of the snow drifts around Kenbrook? How can one help loving this old rectangle of paths, buildings, grass and trees? There is an atmosphere of homelikeness over Upsala that is due to the expanse of the campus. The buildings are spread widely, and their architecture is neither severe nor uniform. Classes are held in buildings of classical and New .England styles; the library is of similar architecture, and the dormitories fall into the Colonial class. The boys, dorm is THE ENTRANCE T0 KENBROOK HALL-for beauty, not utility hidden away from the eyes of the casual visi- tor. It is situated in a deeper-lying part of the campus. The rooms are of all sizes ac- commodating from one to three students. Kenbrook, the girls dorm, is our pride and joy as far as architectural beauty is con- cerned. Large and classical colonial, this mag- nificent edifice pleases the eye on the inside as well as on the outside. The nrst floor is taken up by large rooms lined with silk tap- estry and broad windows. The music room boasts of two frescoes on the ceiling which depict dawn and twilight in striking color schemes. The lounge is soft and comfortable. WHERE

THE ADIVIINISTRATORS DOMAIN Pianos abound all over the iirst floor. Up- stairs are the girlsl rooms which correspond very much to those in the boysl dorms. Each girl has definite ideas as to how her room should be and, at a glance, one can easily de- tect the influence of the feminine touch. Old Main, Commons, the Library, the Gym, Boysl dorm, and Kenbrook Hall- thatls where we know Upsala. There is never a dull moment in either of THE HOUSE SENATE-g0verning gals: Louise Anderson Doris Bodine Georgia Hageman Maude Nelson Ten the dormitories. Upstairs and downstairs, there is always something going on. If the pianos aren,t at the mercy of someonesi fin- gers the typewriters are. And Whether itls harmony or cocophoney, there is sound. The girls live together and work together in Kenbrook Hall. They are governed by a set of five purposeful young ladies, called the House Senate. Things like signing in and out, misdemeanors and all other extraneous activities are under the direct supervision of this venerable body which is composed of the Misses Louise Anderson, Georgia Hage- man, Edith Olson, Maude Nelson, and Doris Bodine. The duty of being a senator is not a difficult one, for the girls are well behaved most of the time. Of course we are not for- getting the masquerade and the unfortunate episode of the goat in Kenbrook With their ensuing official investigations. Only the freshman girls find that the House Senate can be an inconvenient institu- tion. To them fall the jobs of answering the telephone, getting candy at 8 RM. and
