Excerpt from Pine Needles, 1974The campus is busy tonight, there are organizational meetings in Elliott Hall. The cynicism of later in the year has not yet set in, and people are still willing to be cajoled into joining one of the many activities. They are returning from dinner now, stomachs trying to adjust to ara and its myriad delicacies. The leaves are still green on the trees, but it is the tired green of late summer when hot weather seems badly inappropriate. People are playing frisbee in the Quad prior to settling down to study. Later tonight there will be a water fight and the freshman girls will allow the guvs from Hinshaw to massacre them. The battle lines will change several times before weary housemothers call a halt.There is still an air of newness, of excitement, if it can be called that. Especially is this true for the freshmen, but it also spills into those jaded upperclassmen who count the semesters remaining. It's the feeling of a fresh start, and underlining it is the first premonition of cold weather.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
