President Compton inaugurates the smithy students built in Mavrorachi, 1958.
Anatolia College students’ daily lives included activities which structured both the time students spent at school and their communication and interactions with each other. The only opportunity for contact, communication, and maybe flirting, between male and female students was given on the last morning shuttle to the school and the library. The “pins,” although associated with punishments—memorizing “κατεβατά” (long texts) in English, as an interviewee mentioned—and having an educational character, were described as a game taking place inside and outside the classroom. Finally, Sunday dinner was presented as a ritual of savoir vivre which was adopted by students and their families.
