Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Alpha: Published by the Junior Class, of Washington College, 1895 It is with some natural misgiving, that we present to the public this, the first attempt of Washington College to compete with sister institutions in the line of undergraduate literature. This feeling is strengthened rather than lessened, from a consciousness of the fact that the audience to whom we address ourselves, while limited in number, is in a position to pass critical judgment upon the merits and demerits of our work, as to whether it truly represents, or otherwise, the esprit of the college from which it emanates. Yet, this circumstance is not without its recompense; for we feel that whatever our weaknesses may be, they will be freely pardoned by those who, before us, have made to echo the corridors of old Washington. In these pages an attempt is made to present a view of our Alma Mater as she is to-day, though glimpses are taken at our historic and interesting past. These backward glances reveal in a clearer light our present position, and from a comparison of the two we may learn if we are keeping abreast, in our particular sphere with the foremost in the grand progressive march of American schools. Our record is without blemish; we believe our future will be equally beyond reproach, and from a material standpoint, far more brilliant and influential. Between the vanished months with their fading memories and years that are yet to be, we stand to day, glorying in the first, enthusiastic for the second.
