New Sights Everyone has experienced the familiar view of Earle Bridge and the stony facade of Boynton Hall looming up behind it. The eye sweeps to the left, looking over the low arc of shrubs at Stratton Hall with its duo of WPI police cruisers parked out front. It is the fact that a person can become acclimated to the campus soon after arriving here as a freshman which gives it some of its appeal. By the time senior year rolls around, it is like an old acquaintance, and one becomes aware of its constant metamorphosis. In recent years, with the renovations of Atwater-Kent and Washburn, the student body has enjoyed better facilities and suffered through higher tuitions than ever before. The benefits have been many, ranging from the computer aided design lab to scanning electron microscopes, to the implementation of word processing equipment at WACCC. A major attraction of WPI continues to be its small size. With approximately six hundred students in each class, the academic ratio is very condusive to greater accessability to both professors and facilities. With state of the art equipment, higher level classes in all disciplines can now offer actual hands-on experience with technical procedures that might otherwise be unattainable. So with steady progress, WPI is not only upgrading equipment, but educational standards as well. One point of controversy, however, is the continuing movement to alter the elements of the Plan. Complaints center on whether such changes might defeat the intent of the Plan in the first place, which is to provide the student with an unprecedented freedom to choose his curriculum and foster an atmosphere of true learning. Such debates are vitally important to the evolution of the school and should continue. Indeed, the dynamic nature of the WPI community is what, in the end, shapes the destiny of the Institute. 8 • Opening
