F a c u 1 7 Do all P.H.D. ' s wear their tassels on the left? What do you suppose the scarlet collars stand for? To us as blue-capped figures elbowing for room in the freshman transept, the Wellesley faculty looked impressive and remote. Tales we had heard about ogres who doled out assignments and D s with equal frequency seemed to be substantiated by the formality of Academic Procession. Later, as upperclassmen, we saw the other half of the picture. In Mock Academic Council and Faculty Show we laughed to discover that the faculty are human. Our final estimation was one of neither awe nor ridicule, but of warm-hearted re- spect. In classes and conferences we probed the seemingly bottomless depths of our profes- sors ' knowledge. We invited them to the Dorms on Wednesday nights, lunched with them at the Well, and visited their homes for after-dinner coffee, on all occasions discovering them to be not only admirable for their attainments but likeable as well. In four years at Wellesley we have come to give an A rating to our faculty, who are the central influence on our college lives. Department Chairmen, Group •• Mr. La Rue, Sra. Ruiz-de-Conde, Miss McCarthy, Mr. Heyl. Mi-- Hawk, Mi-- Lane, Miss Taylor, Miss Salditt, Miss Bosano. Also Mrs. Ilslcy. 12
