Wilkes College is a place to be lonely in a crowd or enshrined at a dorm party. It is a place to be in love with a student, laugh- ing with others and to be lost: physically, mentally, spiritually. In short, Wilkes Col- lege is a place for living. But Wilkes is also a school which looks back on almost a half a century of history and tradition, a school which prides itself upon ingenuity, l'hell raising, academic excellence and even daring. Its very name conjures up visions of blue and gold, wrestling, bio-pre-med and calcula- tors. In fact, Wilkes College is tat least to its studentsi somewhat of a legend. So how does one accurately portray Wilkes College student life in the year 1978-1979? If one talks only of the leg- end. he may speak merely in cliches, arriving at a picture of an institution that no student would consider quite sincere. But if one emphasizes only the individual, he not only attempts a task far too com- plex, but he loses some of the unique- ness of Wilkes College as a whole. One must show both sides, for each student represents one of those differentials of individuality that makes Wilkes what it is just as Wilkes represents one of those dif- ferentials of experience that make a stu- dent's life what it will be. Wilkes College is life and legend - the pointlessness or the price of a time - honored tradition; the sorrow or the magic of an ordinary day.
