As we close the book of an- other college year. so too, we lay aside our pen for another year as far as this column is concerned. During the year we have tried to relate to you through this medium the activities, academic. athletic and spiritual. of the campus. We hope our column has been inter- esting and enjoyable. although at times we might have neglected to relate all the important events. As for us. writing "The Week" has been very beneficial: indeed. it has been a pert of our education. it is to be hoped that this work has done something towards help- ing us to express ourselves better in writing. It is certain that it has taught us to be observant: and no matter whdt one may do be observant. interested and active is to be getting the most out of life.
