Intramural sports featured competition between classes, and the faculty usually fielded a team too. The intramural program helped build loyalty to one's class. but the most important factor in building class allegiance was "freshman initiation." Though the freshmen did not get shaven heads as in the '20s, they were forced to spend initiation day with an onion strung around their neck.

The present Science Center now houses a 16 inch telescope. Chapter XIV/119
