Two hundred ninety-nine Sophomores in 1965-66
Sophomores at last! The long awaited reward! We
won the struggle and enjoyed not being on the bottom of the totem pole. How "inferior" the "frosh"
were to us "mature" sophomores — all 299 of us.
Many moved off campus because of room shortages.
It was a good idea at first, but was as much studying
done? A new rule abolished study hours for the sophomores on campus but night check remained.
The sophomore classes of SAC and MC encouraged renewal of friendships by sponsoring one of the
first class dances of the school year.
Homecoming was earlier with "Old Man River" as
the setting. Our class contributed a float to the parade
and danced to the music of Guy Lombardo and His
Royal Canadians at the "Col."
The Fall Fair was a huge success with its theme
being "Camelot!" With the other classes we worked on
the booths and decorations and the hard work could
surely be noticed. Many of our parents attended.
Thanksgiving followed and for many of us that
lived far away, it was the first time we had gone home.
With Thanksgiving past, we had three weeks of hard
studying, which meant English, Religion, History, and
for many of us Philosophy, before we were free for
Christmas. However, for many this vacation was filled
with part-time jobs and trips to the library to work on
term papers. Returning from the holidays semester
exams faced us.
It was a long stretch until Easter break. The only
change of pace we had to look forward to was the annual retreat. This gave us a chance to consider our actions
and to plan ways of improving during the coming year.
Easter came and was followed by the musical and
spring sports. In May we declared our majors and
minors as we registered for 1966-67. From here we
would continue on in the fields of our special interests. As juniors we would be entering the final two
years of our formal undergraduate education and setting the pattern for our success in adult world.
