As AN INSTITUTION of higher learning, Wichita University did not build a fence around itself dur- ing the war-now being fought to a successful conclusion .... It participated and is still partici- pating in the war effort in every conceivable way to help bring that end at the earliest possible minute .... We were all behind our Uncle Sam in his every need .... Now the campus is beginning to take on more of the desirable attributes of peace .... The enrollment is up Cmore men are herel and gradually many former Shockers are returning to the campus .... The Parnassus, too, returns to its peace-time form-that of a book in one unified edition .... However there is still a paper shortage so if we use a symbolic fence to help tell part of our story, it just proves there is still a war going on! . . . Herein you will see some of the people and learn of some of their activities during the college year of 1944 and 1945 ....

SIGHTS ON THE CAMPUS of the University of Wichitgi, as on any up and coming college campus, are widely Varied. Anytime in Morrison Hall you might find the campus musicians hard at work, as the picture of Wichita's famed two piano team indicates. The band, caught in an off moment at one of the fall football games, looks as if it might break into Hail Wichita', at any moment. On the other page, the University's cheer leaders are about to swing into action. The other pictures show that the most interesting building on the campus is still the Commons, 'cause everyone majors in Commonology.
