Won't you add a few of the outstanding memories of your college days? We shall be glad to hear of any incident, however trivial, which lingers in your mind.

I always associate Michigan with the lovely oak trees and squirrels.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Martin L. D'Ooge at a Michigan Alumnae meeting here recently, and I recalled to her mind an incident that has always been a bright spot in my college days at Michigan. Dr. D'Ooge had established the beautiful custom of inviting to a Thanksgiving dinner at his home several young people away from home at Thanksgiving time. I was in his graduate class in Greek, and had the honor of being one of the eight fortunate ones to be invited to his home on Thanksgiving, 1908.
