Excerpt from The Briar Patch, 1924 To us, too, Sweet Briar means beauty. The spirit of our college must ever include the love of beauty, beauty in nature, in art, in life; the beauty of orderly thought and orderly living; the beauty born of mur muring sound, of friendship with nature. Encircling us, as they encircled that little girl of long ago, are the everlasting hills glorifying our campus and adding strength to its beauty. They are to us the symbol of that confidence and quiet power of which the girl of today has need, the power of a well developed body, a vigorous and questing mind, a soul informed by earnest purpose and high vision. We are surrounded on every hand by loveliness and by the simplicities of nature, and through these we may learn to think sincerely, to live truly, to serve nobly. May the spirit of Sweet Briar so inform our minds and hearts that we may go forth from our beautiful college with power and joy and courage to meet life's great adventure.
