Perhaps the strongest memory in students ' minds as they return, William Smith Hall. Not a Roman gladiator, Linda Anders is one of the goalies on the WC hockey team. Despite appearances, a methods of washing clothes have changed and wringing them out is only necessary when a bathroom floods, as it did in Queen Anne ' s. No, WC is not providing students with ironing boards on wheels — the Queen Anne ' s ironing room has just become an extra storage closet. Dr. and Mrs. Parcell play at the annual Bach ' s Lunch. It seems that every year the New Dorms lot is overcrowded — but somehow students cope. Introduction 5

Campus Constants In the 80 ' s, we have all come to ex- pect rapid changes in our daily lives. However, we can always find secu- rity in those events and things that stay constant year after year. Wash- ington College, while undergoing many new transitions in its long history, has been able to keep a large amount of its tradition and heritage. The sports pro- gram has kept up its longstanding pres- tige, having sent its lacrosse team to the National Championships very fre- quently in recent history. Most of the buildings have remained static since the turn of the century. Since 1930, the Elm has provided students with cam- pus news every Friday. And of course, Mr. Procolino still delivers. Something that never changes at any college — the need to relax. A college tradition — friends going to class together. One of the newer buildings at WC — the Hynson Pavillion. 4 Introduction

Friends Reacquainted An important attribute looked for in a friend — the owner- ship of a car. How many moonlit walks has this path hosted over the » years? Not only does the college undergo modifications, people also change, sometimes drastically, sometimes very subtly. Life at college can bring new outlooks on life, and few students leave college with the same attitudes as they had when they arrive. Over summer vacations, new principles can be formed and feelings about oneself and others adapt. Friendships that blos- somed the year before can fade away into obscurity, while people we couldn ' t stand suddenly become close to us. New students arrive every fall, making the entire conglomeration of students ever shifting. Whomever the people are, WC students have never had a problem making strong, lasting relationships, insuring that no one will be left alone on weekend nights. 6 Introduction
