Scope and content
An elevated view of the matriculation exercises at the College of Puget Sound. Nearly 900 freshmen were welcomed at CPS. They participated in the centuries-old tradition of matriculation by passing between their professors and then on through the color post quadrangle where they were personally welcomed by President R. Franklin Thompson into the student body. They would pass the color post again upon graduation. (T.Times, 10/10/1946, p.5)
