Like a small-scale New England village is our cam- pus, with the dimple as the village green; the chapel, the church; the administration building, the town hall; Emerson and Everett, the eating places; the dorms, the houses; and the library, itself. We have stopped our air- raid drills, but a few training planes still dive over the dorms; News reporters stop you on your way to Mary Lyon to ask you what you think of compulsory service after the war; and someone tries to nab you for scraping dishes in Emerson. Autumn comes quickly to the campus and almost be- fore you know it the Christmas tree in front of the Chapel reflects its colored lights across the snow, and the long white finger of the Chapel spire points into a starry night. When the elms turn to a filigree of green and gay skirts flutter about the campus, it’s a sign of spring. The May Day pageant comes sweeping down the dimple and finally the graduation procession adds its climax to the campus year. Cee Mere US

ADMINISTRATION “The Backbone of the College is the Ad- ministration,’ and in the Ad. Building, we find all the vertebrae! First of all, there is Dr. Meneely, who, if we were to continue on with this metaphor, might be designated as the spinal cord; Miss Remick 1s whatever it is that connects the spinal cord with the rest of the backbone. But here we had best let the figure of speech die a natural death, as we take a look around the rest of the Ad. Building. There is the Dean's office, where Miss Barker is always ready with advice when we feel we need it, and with a scolding, if it should be necessary. Secretary Jeanne Wirtz is there to sign weekend slips, make appoint- ments, and answer any and all questions that don’t need to be taken to Miss Barker. There’s the table there for program cards, and appli- cations for self-help and scholarships. Down the hall, Miss Littlefield, Dean of Freshmen, helps the potential sophomores on their way. In the Admissions office, Miss Townsend interviews sub-freshmen, and goes over hun- dreds of applications, with their accompany- ing photographs. Then there’s Miss Young and Miss Moore; theirs is the job of straightening out room problems, and worrying about course cards and permission slips and grades and every- thing else with which a Registrar’s office has to be concerned. Across the hall, Miss Dunkle and her as- sistants see that we get our bills and our pay on time. Especially bills, or does it just seem that way? Without Information and Miss Dunham, Wheaton girls would never get those wonder- ful long-distance calls that come in every so not-often-enough; our late pers, our changes in registration, flowers, telegrams, and visit- ing firemen all come through Information. — Upstairs, there are rooms for the faculty and staff, which the majority of students never see. Then downstairs. Mr. Fillmore checks on general conditions, Nancy Newbert sells us the books and paper we need, and above all, we get our MAIL! [ 10 |
