Abstract
Based on evidence from the "Boiling Pot," the past century at Kalamazoo College has been witness to two sagas: the first rooted in the concept of a “fellowship in learning” and the second in the “K Plan,” including importantly the year-round calendar. These were separated, during the late 1940s and the 1950s by a couple alternative but less coherent “collective representations,” while the final decades of this century, i.e. from the 1980s to 2005, are increasingly absent of any clear institutional saga.
