AVE ATQUE VALE

Before we close we might say a word about the coming graduating class, many of whom at the time this appears (Easter Vacation) are in New York, Boston, Chicago, and elsewhere searching for jobs. The usual number of men are planning on further study in law, business, and medicine, but a large number will start work immediately following Commencement. Compared with the past few years, hopes are unusually optimistic. Many seniors have positions already promised, others are hopeful of landing something before June.

And now we conclude our occupancy of the Chair and look to our departure from the undergraduate life of the College with no little feeling. The demise of our responsibility will not be so prolonged or poignant as that of our classmate, the Editor of The Dartmouth, but we are fully in accord with him as regards our feeling' towards the College. We have enjoyed it and we shall forever retain the pleasant memory of its association. We shall love the College for the ideals it engenders and the quality of the education it offers. We like the liberal attitude with which it approaches the student and his problems. We like the faculty, and the free and friendly manner of their relationship towards us. We like the Administration, both for their friendship and for the wisdom and foresight which attends their direction of the interests of the College. We even like the weather and the isolation of Hanover, the first because of the crisp, clear days of February and the balmy sunshine of May more than offset the dullness of March, the second because we have found time to gain something from the scholastic offerings of the College. But more than all that we shall love Dartmouth because it is Dartmouth that seems sufficient in spite of all else.
