Remanemher When By Jim Griffith - 'The University of Prince Edward Island Campus did not always exist as it appears to- day, The rules and regulations, administrative bodies, curriculum, teaching methods, residences, and other aspects of University Life, have changed considerably over the years; some more drastically than others. While it may be impossible to relive and change the past, it certainly is possible to remember the good times, good friends and good feelings which were generated thrpughoUt one's college career. ~REMEMBER WHEN- -Ls an attempt by present faculty members and administrative officials to share with you some of their experiences which took place on this campus someWhere in the past. , name is Jim Griffith and I am presently Director of Student Services and will be with you for the next few issues.
