and Chemistry have been added to the catalogue, and we study the philosophy of democracy and the science of government with a new interest. ‘The emphasis has swung from the meaningless to the purposeful in every- thing we do, and enthusiasm has increased accordingly. Tuesday night the bell at 7:05 is the signal for de- fense courses in nutrition, home nursing and others; on Wednesday night the bell very often means a dance for service men from neighboring camps; and a two minute bell at any time is the spring that starts off action on every side of the campus. Lights go off, rooms are emptied, corridors filled, specified victims con- veniently fall into bath tubs, break arms, or get caught under illusory debris, while stretcher crews come ably to their rescue; invisible fires from fortunately non - existent incendiary bombs are put out, and dorm wardens reassure unconcerned bridge players in the dorms. In twenty minutes the normal routine is picked up and continued as easily as a piece of war relief knitting. The bell every other Sunday night sends us to dis- cussions of the political situation at home and abroad, discussions such as Mr. Cressey’s on conditions in India, or Mrs. Hidy’s précis of the Beveridge Plan, or Mr. Knapton’s interpretation of geopolitics. One very special week end, the bells rang to announce the open- ing of a student-led symposium where the all important topic of American Horizons in the fields of science, the arts, and politics was looked into and clarified. Despite the fact that we write out blanks for war bonds now more often than charges at Marty’s, and despite the fact that we spend our time on defense courses instead of playing bridge, times haven’t changed so much that we forget to worry about exams, look forward to vacations, and prepare for bigger if fewer week ends.
