Seniors display varied emotions Behind the scenes the night of graduation, Seniors had many mixed emotions. For some, it was hard to believe that they had completed four years of education. For others, it was the key to their future which opened the door leading them to explore the world. For all, it was a farewell to friends, friends that meant so much as time went fast. It was hard to believe, but through the tears, the Seniors were together for the last time during graduation. 1% ,,, Cvtu Hiifli Vw Commuuitg il.it! ili.hict $io. la ' (Triin Diane Stanley ' V • • 6it 'Vrvtlr y ty tC jtn, CO r,uA « , } 'S f B Mt tm umt V rn iMt £• A4Z 5 i p 1 n in n Ci ui id Clag City, Illinois.
