Friday. June 4. H165 SCARLET AND BLACK Seniors leave Different famous; (lounges Seen As Striking, Solitle By Sue Taylor When the class of 1965 came to Grinnell as eager, naive freshman in the fall of 1961, we came to a different campus from the one we will leave nus afternoon. The campus looked different and it lelt different. Some oi the changes have been the kind that jump out and hit you in the face, but some of them are more subtle. The face of the campus has changed. The fine arts building and Roberts Theatre were new when we arrived. Barber Plaza was completed that first year — if Il'S ever been completed. The library was just one year old — and the science building didn‘t have its addition _ even partially finished. And the Forum wasn’t here. We were the first class [D live in three unions. First there was the old barracks —< We liked its “Warm" atmosphere and its sentimental memories. Then there was Main hall basement. That, too, has its memories. But this year saw the opening of a new millinnrdollar building for the union—rat. We adjusted quickly. But it the new soon becomes fa- miliar, there are some old things that this class knew. Perhaps we are dated because we really knew Duane Frankhouse not just heard about him. But we also knew the era that he stood for. And it’s an era that we have seen pass from the scene. Maybe it was more of a feeling — an atmosphere, an attitude. But it's no more. Maybe it was enthusiasm. May be it was just being able to have fun — and have it wrtltout trying. Perhaps it. \vas knowing how to taught. because that’s not some- thing you learn in school. Our freshman year, there was a student variety show — complete with legs contest and a twist con- lest # and now the twist is so out dated that it takes courage to do it in public. We saw the beginning of liquor- by~tlieri'oom, and the new permanr ent openrhouse policy as opposed to the Various “trial” programs of open dorms and open moms. And we are really dated by be- ing able to say that we celebrated our 2lst birthdays at the old Rex. We Witnessed the entire life of the Ford Foundation grant and its matching fund. The years of our Ford were the brunt of several jokes, but they also brought in $6,000,000. There were four years of activi— ties in politics — both kinds. Stu-‘ dent government had just been re— organized when we came to in- clude something new—the student senate. And this spring witnessed its death — and the advent of the advisory council — just half as much. So go cycles. And in the world of real politics — well, a lot happened. The names of Humphrey. Goldwater, Truman. Eisenhower, and others graced the campus. The PPPE saw its great momenu. Our freshman year was the first quasi-legal spring riot. This year may have been the last spring riot — legal or otherwise There were changes in academia. too. The JLA, and interim came and went. R. R. Palmer’s History of the Weslem World Went and came. We've seen the coming of a new dean of men and a new dean of women — and we’ve been through the end of the term of a president. These were years of social con. scmusness on campus a years of concern with the movements which have captured the imagination of take the tianot having to be . young people all over the nation. One of the more popular relreais from the world of the academic is the Forum's plush green pool mom — and a. pmyetl above. its appeal is universal. “SECULARIZED PROTESTAN‘HSM is cl]. obi-(ill! its own hum-l,» Til'lch no Rabm'on m derlal'mml Mo lunar-l stations.

But there is something missing that was here when we came. Maybe it’s a life style. It's some- thing that has to do with knowing how [D have fun. It's a kind of iris formality that just happens — it isn‘t planned. Maybe now there is more “inlori'nality” — fewer tra- ditions more activities. But there is a spirit, an attitude, an atmosphere that isn't here any more, And it’s too bad. This afternoon the class of '65 is leaving. It’s too early to de- termine whether we've left our work. But we’re no longer as naive — and perhaps not as eager. We leave as different people, and we leave a different campus bee hind us. who can predict what hap- pens now?
