I n the spring term the Mirage, the college annual is published

by the junior class. The "Junior Prom" of course always holds its

time honored place.

No time in the year is so f u l l of traditions as commencement

week. The senior class presents the university with some appropriate

gift, which is to be a monument to the memory of the college days

of the out-going class. Then at a chapel service, the seniors leave

the hall, and the juniors move down and take the time-honored

seats. Each year an ivy is planted by the senior class and the spade

presented to the juniors, who will the next year add another to the

number of vines that make the building so beautiful. On commence-

ment day, the senior class marches in a body to all the buildings as

a formal farewell to each loved hall, and i t is not without some

degree of sadness that each year ends. JENNIE FARMER, 0
