Each girl will leave Alma a different person from when she arrived. Our friends and memories, our tears and joys will never leave. They are planted firm in the halls of Alma College just as the roots of this tree are embedded in this soil. Throughout.our lives we will meet many difficul- ties. But we must be like this tree Each year it will grow more and more. As we leave Alma we will grow also in wisdom and in years. To each one of her graduates Alma College has given an opportunity. We, the graduates, must use this golden opportunity just as this tree will take in the nutrients that it needs from the soil. As a graduate of Alma College you must stand erect also and carry your golden opportunity and knowledge into the years that are yet before you. Dawn Cochrane President of the Graduating Class 22
