Excerpt from Sibyl, 1904 It is finished at last. The task of putting out a book that would modestly endeavor to meet the expectations of every student has not been an easy one. Yet we have derived much enjoyment and valuable experi ence therefrom. We have striven to compose a book that would exceed its worthy predecessors and that would define a course which others in the future might develop and improve. We trust that we have succeeded in this. And in no small measure the success of our, effort is due to our hustling, tactful, and resourceful business manager, Mr. B. F. Shively. Among our many experiences we have learned that college life is too strenuous for the students to give such a literary undertaking the thuro consideration and attention it deserves. We regret this condition of affairs, but trust that the future editors of the sibyl will receive the hearty sup port of the student body. The sibyl, we maintain, is not an enterprise of the Juniors alone, but is an affair in which the Whole college should have a vital interest.
