A college grown up among the cobblestones of an old city, a campus hewn out of a modern city ' s cement, the Richmond Professional Institute presents an organization as diversified and as vital as the cobblestones that surround it. Individuality is emphasized in all phases of college activitiy, and as each cobblestone differs in size and shape from those surrounding it, so does each student differ in the beliefs and aspirations to which his life is patterned. This is the story of life on a cobblestone campus as told in the words and seen in the pictures of this book. Through the variety of thought and action displayed in these pages, we hope to give an insight into this year at R.P.I. We have tried to capture the activities and events from September through June and to present them in The Cobblestone as a lasting mement o for the Senior Class of 1956. If in the future while glancing through these pages you recall fond memories of this year at R.P.I., then our story will have a happy ending. Tos mwsmss ' s pm miii
