. ,Thi Renaissance - A campus in transition FOCUSING ON THE first years of Washburn's second century, one sees a reiteration of medieval history: first, relative acceptance of the status quo, then a resurgence of premises and responsibilities, a period of dark depres- sion and tragedy followed by introspection and restoration. Washburn in three years has been a campus in transition - the renais- sance has almost come a full cycle. With the Student Union, Morgan, and the Fine Arts Center completed and the law school well underway, practical minds and idealistic hearts are at work on the Learning Resource Center. Transition is also evident in internal aspects of university life. Students are more probing, more perceptive, more knowledge- able, faculty members are more challenged and in return more challenging, administra- tors are more determined to seek solutions to problems of curriculum and finance. Football has had a rebirth, dialogue is more emphatic, and campus life is no longer that of even one generation ago. This year, The Kaw explores and records the phases and faces of change. 'ug .
