Sailing On New Horizons Four years ago, we began our college careers with many aims and aspirations. Our futures seemed far away, and we knew we had embarked on a long jour- ney. Among our goals, one in particular stood out. We wanted to experience life at Westminster College. In 1904, a similiar group of students set out on the same voyage. Westminster ' s first yearbook was published that year. The editors explained their purpose in the forward: they tried not only to furnish the reader with a little entertainment, but also to give a general idea of the principle phases and departments of college life at Westminster for from its very nature such a work as this represents the college fully According to Greek mythology, the Argo was a strong sailing vessel manned by competent sailors. It was captained by Jason, whose purpose was to obtain the valuable, but elusive, Golden Fleece. Their task was considered impossible by all. Yet, Jason, his crew, and the Argo were successful. They faced the strange, new horizon before them, and accom- plished their goals. In the spirit of this mythological tale, the Argo was chosen as the name of the yearbook. Like Jason ' s Argo, Westminster ' s Argo has traveled through the decades and survived the storms and the celebrations. It has seen the horizons change as the sun rose and set. Over the years, it has served as a log of all of Westminster ' s successes and failures. In every aspect of Westminster College, the Argo has continued to sail. Through the changing trends of student life, new and old faculty. Titan triumphs and de- feats, new and diverse student organiza- tions, and the ever-changing senior class, the Argo has tracked the many, varied horizons of Old Mother Fair. As you leaf through the pages of this book, perhaps you can keep one thing in mind. No matter how much Westminster College changes and no matter how much we as individuals change, we will always continue . . . Sailing on New Horizons. Opening
