INTRODUCTION Everyone tries to live a well-balanced life. In our classrooms we work hard to master school sub- ;ects, but we look forward to getting together with friends at club meetings and dances, doing something to change the pace and ease the pressure of study. We also spend some of our time getting out-of-doors and participating in our favorite sports. Each of our lives is divided into three facetswe divide our time between study, society, and sports. We may therefore say that in each situation we display one of our three faces. When we display these faces in our everyday routine, our actions represent the Three Faces of Jefferson: Scholastic, Social, and Sports. Our Scholastic Face reflects knowledge assimulated in class-all the facts, figures, and skills that we absorb. The Social Face shows the pleasure of being accepted, of belonging, of having the approval of friends. The Sports Face encompasses our collective pride and enthusiasm in our athletic endeavors. Our faces have a multitude of expressions. We learn valuable etiquette from our associations with friends and from expressing our excitement at sports events in a respectable manner. By eating and playing together we learn additional social poise, while pride is also encouraged by a teacher's favorable comment or a successful paper drive. The perfect student participates in all Three Faces. He divides his time proportionally, reaping the benefits of each. Thus the well-balanced student of today provides a well-balanced and widely educated citizen of tomorrow. As we have depicted life at Jefferson by these three faces, we have respectively divided this year's MONTICELLO into three main parts-one for each face. Therefore we present this book to you, the Jeffite who has shown these faces, hoping that it will accurately depict and everlastingly preserve the Three Faces of Jeff-1959.
