Struan 1964 - Adm.monash.edu.au

One of the most succin ct comments
on st udent life is co ntained
in that S.R.C. publication, the Co llege
Diary :- " Decem be r 11 Students go
down. " Let us accept th at calendar s
are necessary. But such prophecy is
in the realm of wi tchcraft o r seco nds
ight.
The co llege yea r will end on that
day, for students at an y rate. For
so me, college life will end, and they
w ill t read out new paths to glory.
Perhaps, to the more sentimental of
us, " St ru an" w ill present so me tangibl
e record of the college years.
It may serve to prove tha t college
life was ne ithe r just a ba d dream,
nor me re ly a ti me of s tu den t-sha red,
idyllic happi ness.
However one regards " St ruan", or
co llege life, the ac tua l event of the
publication is due, this yea r, to a
greater extent than ever before, to the
efforts of those mem bers of staff who
have shared in the wo rk .
Tha nks are due in pa rt icular to
Mr. Pro wse an d to Mr . Piggot t. We
are especially grateful to the typist s
in the " fro nt office" who undertook
a Herculean ta sk with a ready sm ile.
The comm itt ee tha nk s all co nt rib uto
rs for making material available.
Let us hope tha t o n December 11
the students, whichever d irectio n is
their lo t - down , up, o ut or in _
will car ry with them " Stru a n", a
testament to the reality of a year gone
by .
