As much as the catalogs and promotions would enjoy having one believe that this jneta- morphosis is triggered and stimulated by the external academic surroundings, it remains rather the individual's responsibility to seek his own level of maturity and to actively take ad vantage of the unlimited opportunities afforded him at ALBANY STATE COLLEGE.

To accurately relate the meaningful idea of College living, it is necessary to begin at a point far removed from the actualities of the College and through a process of examination and clarification move toward those actualities so that the Idea might be understood. This pro cess is perhaps the most ancient of theoretical approaches to the understanding of an ab stract idea. Plato, through the lips of Socrates, expounded that this was the only method of understanding an idea whose existence takes an abstract form.

The first step in the metamor phosis of the individual is a simple realization that a college educa tion is not as liberal as he once thought; from this point, his growth continues with that of the College. Discovering that there is a torrendous amount of meaning ful work to be done immediately, is a revealing experience in the students' life. It is this awareness of relative importance which typi fies a part of the Idea. The ability to rank or classify activities and responsibilities in relation to their importance is a difficult but price less acquisition. As the student progresses through the academic program, this ability becomes a cherished possession or an envied desire. His four years are spent in a search for meaning in his life and a goal to build his future upon.

a small, urban college like ALBANY STATE,, the opportunity for discovering the modes of life which differ from ones own is increasec substantially when compared to the frequency of such an occurrance at a private c r^t

college. Within the student body one is a

find representatives from many diverse cultural] and intellectual backgrounds. Here, there ar« upper, middle, and lower class, and even

citizens. The divisions are not mutually exciu-j sive, but they do exist. .... ..,

Included in the College assimilation to cultures and backgrounds of the world, is the adjustment to the meanings of life in reaction to his environment. He experiences the joys and heartaches of love as the ages have before him. He drinks; he smokes; he thinks; he argues; he laughs; and then again he cries. All emotions are felt at once, but the College gives the student his niche in life and nourishes his new found Idea. ^m

8i// Porker, RAM layout chief, gives forth with some of his great ideas to the staff on layout for this year's publication.

An "A" Rating in '67, All-American in '68When work began on the 1968 RAM, the staff

was faced with a great challenge. The aspirations of an Ail-American yearbook rating and the chal lenge to be sure that the '68 RAM was as good and as interesting as the '67 RAM, which received an A rating by National Yearbook Service, was the staff's major objective. The Co-Editors, who have spent many long hours in conference and planning sessions, feel that this year's book is even better than the '67 RAM. For this, they hope for an Ail- American this year.

Eunice Foster, the '68 RAM Co-Edi tor.

"Be Be" Carter, a freshman addition to this year's staff.

Minnie "Buzzard" Sotton, Class Editor.

James "Peanut" Anderson, '68 Co- Editor, in another setting apart from the "midnite" hours of year book routine.
