talked her master’s degree at tin
College last year.

changes in ooeds since her undei
graduate days. ■ “Not only ar
there many more women attenc
ing tho College, but women stu
dents now a R <K> much more aler
to nolitlcal and economic cond,
tions.” she said.
One of the changes Miss Zmi
hopes to see on campus in a shoi
timo is a return of the “Pen.
State spirit.'* She feels that muo)
of tha college loyalty and unit
has lessened during the war yeai
of accelerating classes.
Call-length cotton dresses coeds
are snorting on campus now rr
