ALUMNI ARE WELCOMED TO EDINBORO
Today, the Alumni are the guests of Edinboro State Teachers College.
With a welcoming hand we greet you and bid you welcome to a grow­
ing Edinboro.
We only hope that your day will be enjoyable and profitable and that
when you leave it will be with the feeling of a day well spent coupled with
the desire to return at some time in the near future.

1937-38 IS SUCCESSFUL YEAR
With dignified ceremony and enthusiastic approval, Edinboro’s Ground­
breaking Exercise for a three-quarters of a million dollars building pro­
gram took place on last February fourteenth. This day—in the word of
all—was a propitious one for Edinboro.
Since that day Edinboro’s four new buildings have been rapidly taking
shape. Foundation work on all the buildings is completed and the super­
structure of the gymnasium, upon which much effort is being concentrated
at present, is being rushed to completion. The major portion of the steel
work is up and the brick walls and concrete floors become reality under the
hands of skilled labor. Too, construction work is progressing on the train­
ing school, the power house, and the new auditorium.
When these buildings are completed—and it is possible that the gy*"
vsical
nasium will be finished by September—Edinboro will possess a physical
plant second to none of the colleges of Northwestern Pennsylvania. But,
what is more important than mere size or grandeur, is the fact that Edin­
boro students will have facilities of the highest order in which to become
fitted for the teaching profession. Then, too, as students, their under­
graduate life will be fuller and richer because of the advantages provided
for them by the new facilities. In any way that the situation is approached,
the year of 1937-38 was an eventful year for those Edinboro students
and newcomers who will in 1938-39 and the many future years enjoy the
more abundant life provided for by .Edinboro’s three-quarters of a million
dollar building program.

I’m finished.
—Finished in regard to the com­
pletion of four years of college work.
In a few days I shall be leaving school
probably never to return again as a
student. With this fact in mind I
am going to try to state some of my
most vivid impressions of college life.
Edinboro Was Different

Without a question, four years of
exposure to a collegiate environment
will, of a necessity, tend to alter any
receptive individual. I often wish I
could see myself now as I was when
first enrolled as a freshman at this
institution. As I remember myself,
I was just as “green” as the leaves
at this time of year.
Coming here directly from a small­
town high school, of course the con­
ditions surrounding me were entirely
changed.
Finding no one I knew;
seeing the upper classmen greet each
other with such a genuine welcome;
having but one ill-fitting suit and one
pair of misshapen shoes to wear; hav­
ing but ?25 for fees, books, room
rent, and food, did not help to add
much to my first impressions.
College Sets Viewpoint

In a few weeks I had become adjusted to a limited degree and I began to feel more as though I belonged to the species Homo Sapiens,
To sumniar3ze mY freshman year I
can say that it was one during which
I became conscious of the fact that
I was getting to a place where I
would have to be looking seriously to
the future. The one single factor
which made my stay more enjoyable
was my relationship with students as
a result of extra curricular functions.
During my sophomore and junior
years my beliefs were more fully con­
firmed and college life with more of
its complexities was heavily over me.
I had taken much satisfaction from
the fact that I was one of the young
people fortunate enough to be in col­
lege. This gave me a type of pride
which has stayed with me ever since.
Not a domineering, oppressive pride,
but pride which evidences itself by
its development of a tolerant atti­
tude and a broader understanding in­
to the reasoning power of an indi­
vidual.

Break Many Records

This year has been one of the most
successful years since the beginning
of our organization on the campus.
Three college records were broken
this spring.
Ruth Davis broke the discus record.
Vega Ihsen broke the javelin re­
cord.
Beatrice Case broke the shot-put
record.
We all extend our heartiest congratulations to the W. A. A. council.
