‘Twas the night before classes and all through the town, the faces of students wore heavy frowns. Downtown is empty, the campus is still…in the early dawn hours the Corps of Cadets will drill.
The day will begin, students rolling from bed…blurry visions of TOTS and Hokie House still fresh in their head.
Freshman will aimlessly wander; upperclassmen will laugh…the Drillfield will be worn as they all choose the quickest path.
