Michiganensian. [1910]

{ PI Ee NINEIWNTEEN-TENB MICHIGANENSIAN i[]; History of Senior Dental Class
ii
m4, HEN the Daily came out one morning four years
a ago, with the ad "Wanted-A phenomenal
class to represent the university"-it little i
knew how soon that ad would be answered.
The first day of the next school year every
I one knew that that class had come, when the
1910 Dents took the town by storm. They
i arrived from every city and every village in
the country. Every one was the pick of his
or her section and the result showed that the fi
competition had been keen. i
No one was a dullard No one was a
I g mlaggard-Every one was a student Every m
one was a star.
The class was truly a history maker in
initiation and became full-fledgedthe dental department. We entered athletics
E and starred, we made honorary societies look sick.
Then we settled down to work. The "lab" work, recitations and mid-night
E grinding came in one monotonous turn. Each one we took up as a matter of fact
a and did it. From Whit's-"Mud-mixing Parlors" to Professor Cole's Chemical
ia mysteries we marched without a faltering step-histology and organic were each
conquered in their turn.
The next year we left the old tradition haunted building from which dozens of i
s dentists had graduated before our time-We entered the grand new structure which
m had been built for us-a fitting memorial to our glorious class.
"Percy" Roth as president in the junior year, withstood with the rest of the
g class, the slaughter of Norey's destructive plague. Rallying from this, the class
j entered upon its third and last year with "Dad" Ahrens as leader. Dean Hoff's
i pleasant smiles and Dr. Loefflers' congenial ways have lightened the burdens of the
i last year. When we separate and go out into the world to commence our life's d
FM work, we will still hold fond memories of Dr. Ward's little tin whistle, which marked
the close of each day's work.
Our college days will soon be over. Friends who have met in the class rooms
1will soon be parted. College victories and College troubles will soo be history.
' They will pass from our real life in a single night. We will soon walk the "labs"
] hfor the last time.
[ Memories above will exist, but in those memories there will live a love for our
N class, for our department, and above all, for our university which even "Time"
Ei cannot efface.
