that the same people should appear over and over in the photographs
since it is only a small group that takes any rabid interest in the war
or the relation of the College to it. The average student's impression of
the war consists of a few impassioned pleas in Assembly to give blood, a
quarter now and then for a stray war stamp and a letter to a boy-friend
in the service once a week. A few brave souls struggle with bandages or
trot to a weekly class to learn about vitamins, germs and nurses-aiding.
This is State's war effort for the most part.
Other colleges have made drastic changes in their curricula and college
programs. They have opened their doors to the Army, Navy or Air
Force. .Math and chemistry have been substituted for liberal arts courses.
The administration of this college however has continued with its "college
