Ursinus is a portroit in miniature — a portrait of life. All the colors and dimensions of the human personality have found their expression sometime during the four years we have spent at college. All the moods and feelings that characterize life os a whole have had their place in our experience. The four years at Ursinus were a preliminary drawing; the next step for us all will be to paint the groat picture - life. Like any picture, life at Ursinus has many component parts; each with its place in the harmony of the whole. There is a pensive side of life: the times when we want and need solitude to gaze at the distant horizons of tho future, to find that port of ourselves which is private and inviolable, to stand aside and enjoy things present, to remember pleasant times past. These ore the moments of quiet thought, the times when we wont repose and rest. Thero have been many such moments during our four years at Ursinus. There is another side of life: moments when we reach for human contact • that social side of life when we wont, not solitude, but tho companionship of others that special someone, the friends ond fun times together, the excitement of things to do and places to go. These arc the times when we find that part of ourselves that lives in and of the world. There have been many such times during our four years of college. Life is also activity and part of a portrait of life must show that active side of life when we want to be going and doing: going to that special weekend and seeing old friends, doing your best for the school with enthusiasm and spark, helping someone else and having fun while at it, playing the game and playing it well. Doing, going, enjoying, playing and having fun this is the active life that we have had at Ursinus. College is more than all these. There is the studious side of life at Ursinus; the time for thought, for learning about our world, for developing the potential of the mind. Like no other experience that we have known or will know, Ursinus has given us the chance to live the studious life. The pensive life, the social life, the active life, tho studious life all have their place in the portrait we have painted. Ursinus has been a portrait in miniature: all the faces and expressions of life, all the moods and feelings, all the preparation for the future. This portrait of life at Ursinus, as we have found it, is what we have attempted to paint on the next pages. They are a memory of the four years we have lived this life in miniature.' 7
