To live in Ford Hall, the senior dormitory, means a student has achieved the highest echelon in Williston living, he has perhaps experienced and enjoyed four years of being a young man in a society designed for him alone - for his education. Ford Hall is the ante- chamber to the graduation hall. Most evocative of learning is the Administra- tion Building, familiarly called the Schoolhouse. There, school life focuses and magnifies itself in the administration ohices, in the classrooms, and in the students, agora, the snack bar. Memorial Dormitory is the heart of under- class spirit. Here is where the majority of the Williston community begins to form, mold, and strengthen relationships with other boys, with their education, and with the increasing social responsibilities given to each Williston citizen. Social awareness and stability come from the dances in the Gymnasium, whose walls more com- monly ring with athletic enthusiasm than with music. The Gym is the symbol of physical prowess and sportsmanship vital to the growth from youth to young manhood. As traditional as the playing field is the Homestead, built by Samuel Williston, where the headmaster and his family reside, where teas and informal gatherings lend a family feeling to Williston. Most dramatic of the Williston buildings is the modern Science Building, completed in 1958, symbol of the expansion which Williston is under- taking. Three new buildings, now plans and paper, will soon arise on the campus: an extension to the dining hall, a new dormitory, and a new chapel. 4
