Four years It ' s spring again. Looking across campus from my perch on the steps of Middle Hall 1 see all the old familiar signs of it — springtime ,u . C. It ' s always the same. No, this year is different. Strangely sad because it marks the end of my college days, strangely happy because the future I ' ve been waiting and planning for is here. Strange thoughts. I wonder il all sen- iors feel this way. Four years . . . four years . . . how could they pass so quickly? Such full years. Such a variety of things crammed into them. Four years . . . f wish I had a penny for every cup of coffee I ' ve drunk in the Snack Bar; for every hour I ' ve played bridge when 1 should have studied; for every book report I ' ve handed in; for every Hod- son Hall meal I ' ve complained about; for every frantic hour I ' ve spent trying to complete all the things that were due tomorrow ; for every laugh and perhaps a tear or two I ' ve shared with wonderful, never-to-be-forgotten college friends . . . I ' d be a millionaire by now. But I ' m a millionaire in quite a different way. Here I have been exposed to more wisdom and information than I ever dreamed existed; here I have had the companionship of the best books known to man; and here I have been guided and molded by interested and capable professors into an intelligent and thoughtful adult. Yes, I am rich — rich with knowledge, ap- preciation, understanding, and the humble reali- zation that I have learned onlv a tiny iota of what there is to be learned.

Alumni sunt This is the story of life at Washington Col- re from September, 1954 to June, 1955. Glanc- l through this annual in future years one will i how could anyone forget — those first weeks school in September; the soccer and cross .mtry victories; the first play; basketball and serleading mingled with thoughts oi Christ- is and good food; the Senior banquet; boys d girls competing in intramural basketball d Softball; the day the Bids came out; la- crosse, tennis and baseball swinging in unison with the spring comedy; watching the rise ot Martin Hall and the new field house; Easter arriving in the midst of the Inter-fraternity and Inter-sorority dances; those yellow sheets, blue books and exams that constantly confuse all and. finally, the sudden ending of it all as the Seniors receive their diplomas and hear the words; Alumni sunt! Any of these memories of a full. rewarding year are here in this Pegasus! mm n
