PORE GSCW stands for scholarship and better living. The past year we have lived more abundantly, studied more deeply, worked harder, played more gladly, and sought truth more exhaustively than ever before in our lives. Here we develop qualities of intellec tual curiosity, unselfish service, and inspiring leadership which, imbued with a spirit of justice and humility, will make us useful citizens in this scientific age. It is the privilege and duty of this book to present an accurate, inclusive account of this one year spent at GSCW. For many of us it was our last; for many of us it was our first. Regardless, it is a year to be remembered. WORD Let us introduce you to “Spec Staff,” who is going to carry you through a pictorial record of the events, incidents, and people that make up a year at GSC. This little char acter is a symbol of progress. Our interest in the recently established radio station and in the introduction of a radio class in our curriculum focuses our ideas on this field, and we embody them in “Spec.” The S p e c t r u m Staff, always abreast of the times, presents Station GSCW— the in corporate story of one unforgettable year.

People iike tfcu ancf Hie Time was when a M.A. or Ph.D. implied that its holder dealt in the realm of intelligence quotients and abstract theories, but this pretentious barricade has been torn down so that today students gratefully realize the faculty are human beings like ourselves. We recognize that examinations are as difficult to them as to us, for exams not only test our accomplishments but also the ability of the instructor. We have found among the faculty valuable friends; we have found them fellow companions leading us in the pursuit of knowledge. 0 A familiar and welcome sound in the Student Union — D r.
