The word itself connotes the rest- 04 0 less undercurrent that has intensified man's recent advancement. We are now riding a crest of inventive achievement. New \rs ideas have spurred manufacture and trans portation. Very recently men have begun to muster their frail strength and utilize their intelligence to probe the mysteries of the universe. Gropingly, steadily, man continues to extend his mastery over the elements. The world we are about to enter is brilliant, tense, and challenging; it is a place where new achievements and new dangers are born simultaneously. During this time of explosive advances, we here at the University have lived exact- ly the same collegiate pattern which our predecessors lived years ago. We studied untii daybreak; then fortified with black coffcwe went doggedly to class to be tested: v/e shelved our books in favor of the bj.ketball games, "bull" sessions, or do* when the threat of mental combat was loss imminent; we spent countless hours discussing the administration, the world situation, the faculty, our classmates. -

The ConnSCU System encompasses four state universities – Western Connecticut State University in Danbury, Central Connecticut State University in New Britain, Eastern Connecticut State University in Willimantic and Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven – as well as 12 community colleges and the online institution Charter Oak State College. Until the state’s higher education reorganization of 2011, Western was a member of the former Connecticut State Unviersity System that also encompassed Central, Eastern and Southern Connecticut state universities. With origins in normal schools for teacher education founded in the 19th and early 20th centuries, these institutions evolved into diversified state universities whose graduates have pursued careers in the professions, business, education, public service, the arts and other fields. Graduates of Western and other state universities contribute to all aspects of Connecticut economic, social and cultural life. -
Western Connecticut Tourism District
Easton: ‘Da Best’ in our Eyes This past year, when the editors of Smithsonian Magazine called for submissions for their annual roundup of “The 15 Best Small Towns to Visit in 2021,” as secretary of the Executive Committee for the Western Connecticut Tourism District (WCTD) and proud Easton resident, I thought the odds were in our town’s favor to nominate “The Christmas Tree Capital of Connecticut” as a strong contender. Silverman’s Farm–Photo courtesy of Stacy Lytwyn The timing couldn’t have been better. Our town’s legacy is linked with three recent milestones. First, last year marked the 175th anniversary of Easton that today totals a population of roughly 7,500. (Visit the official site of the 175 th Anniversary of Easton at https://www.easton175.com) Second, also in 2020, Silverman’s Farm turned 100 years old. Third, the Easton Volunteer Fire Company #1 celebrates its 100-year anniversary as an organization this year. Our town’s staying power is fueled with the same passion, collaboration and loyalty that motivated and guided our earliest residents. For instance, town support and enthusiasm for the annual Fireman’s Carnival, which helps benefit the volunteer organization’s yearly operating costs and other expenses, has fueled the event for 80 seasons, apart from last year in 2020 when it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Comfort derives from tradition, at least this is the case for me when the town center bursts with energy, rolling out games, rides, festival booths, delicious food and delectable small- town appeal. With so much to boast about, I teamed up with my colleague, also an Easton resident, Connecticut guidebook author Stacy Lytwyn Maxwell, and we began the process by answering the essential question, “Why travel here?” The pivotal theme of our final submission was: Easton has nothing, but has everything! In other words, we have “nothing” in the sense of competing with big city attractions. -
