During the month of May, Granville and its encircling hills 
form a most pleasing picture. The days set for the inaugural 
exercises were splendid, and the induction ceremonies, con- 
ducted on the South Plaza, of the Campus overlooking the village 
and lowland framed in a vista of vari-tinted green and purple 
valley walls, glades and sloping pastures, were given an idyllic 
scene. 
In harmony with nature’s setting, the alumni were enthusi- 
astic, the guests gracious, and the citizens of Granville were most 
generous in their hospitality. This interest of old students, of 
sister institutions, and of neighbors, cordially co-operating, con- 
tributed greatly to the success of the occasion. 
To Professor Karl H. Eschman, A.M., of the Conservatory 
of Music, is due particular mention for the splendidly arranged 
program of music, instrumental and choral, rendered by mem- 
bers of the Conservatory faculty and by the College Glee Club. 
On Tuesday, May 19, at two o’clock the Board of Trustees 
held their annual spring meeting in Cleveland Hall ; and the alum- 
ni met in Recital Hall, Samuel B. Brierly, A.B., ’75, President of 
the Alumni Association, presiding. The Carnival of Shepardson 
College was held at three-thirty on the Shepardson Campus. 
Class reunion and Club dinners were set for five-thirty. At 
eight o’clock, the Coburn Players presented Shakespeare’s “As 
You Like It,” the South Plaza, converted into a woodland bower, 
serving as a stage, and the audience occupying seats arranged 
on the adjacent slope of the campus. The plan was most con- 
venient and comfortable, and the rendition of the play almost 
faultless.
