In doing so, of course, we used the ivhole city as a ' ' campus, and we wish to extend our sincere thanks to any and all who assisted. The Virginia Museum of Fine Art was most cordial in allowing us to photo- graph our May Court there. Mr. Robert Harrison placed his classes in Commercial Art at our disposal for creating a cover design, and Mrs. Dorothy Neelfs advertising class ' ' turned to in helping us gain that very necessary crutch called financial assistance. Mrs. Chalkley was most gracious in allowing us to use Founders ' Hall as a temporary photographic studio while class portraits were be- ing made, and various individuals, too numerous to name, offered their assistance through the use of photographs they own. The Proscript and the Richmond Times-Dispatch were equally obliging, as tvere the Col- lege office staffs. And of course, you who purchased this copy of the 1951 Wigivam assisted also. Therefore, to the many, many helping hands — thank you. We hope that the pages tvhich lie ahead will hold some particular m eaning to each of our readers. Furthermore, we will feel successful, if, several years hence, unknown to us, this volume serves in som e sm all way as a link between alumni and college, between alumni and students and, m ost important of all, between college friends.
