Older generations have come and long since passed, save for college records and dusty class rolls, into their nameless obscurity; but each one has contributed its share to the physical and spiritual aspect of the University. And if at times a few features of their work do not seem to have been constructed with an eye to the possible standards of their successors, it does not necessarily follow that the memories they recall are in any way less appealing...
