The front cover, now a faded orange leather, reads \u201cY.M.C.A.\u201d in large letters and also sports a roaring, golden tiger.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div> It\u2019s the fall of 1940<\/span> in Clemson. The new school year has begun, and despite the war overseas, students are continuing classes as normal. Hints of what\u2019s to come for the small, all-male A&M college are heard on the radio and read in newspapers, but for now, all is routine. To help new students with that routine, The Students\u2019 Handbook<\/i> is written, published and disseminated throughout campus.<\/span><\/p>\n The front cover, now a faded orange leather, reads \u201cY.M.C.A.\u201d in large letters and also sports a roaring, golden tiger. The editor, Don B. Wentzel, writes in the front of the book, \u201cHaving passed the milestones of the freshmen, sophomore, and junior years, I am well aware of the helping hand you will need upon entering this institution. It is my utmost desire that the handbook will be your first friend.\u201d The associate editor is none other than Hoby Holtzendorff, whose father was the general secretary of the old YMCA building, now known as Holtzendorff Hall.<\/span><\/p>\n
