Olu S. Lawal Editor-in-Chief lortba emnrtal (ttolUge 15BDD NORTH WEST FORTY-SECOND AVENUE (LtJEUNE RD.) MIAMI. FLORIOA 330S4 FROM THE EDITORS DESK The 1 976 77 academic year may go into history as one of the best years our institution has witnessed in terms of positive changes. This was so because each section of the College family addressed itself more than before to varying priorities: Firstly, a majority of the faculty and staff who, before and at the beginning of the academic year, had the choice of leaving a dying and hope-depleted FMC, rather than doing this, stayed to help make things better, increased their rate of accessibility and proximity to the students, and revitalized their dedication to duties as the academic year progressed. Secondly, there emerged a group of student leaders with in- comparable determination to improve on the passive actions of past student governments, to advance the cause of students in all subjects, and to form the best liason between students and college personnel. Thirdly, and most importantly was the emergence of an adminis- tration, also of an incomparable style, finesse and belief that the contributions of all members of the college matter, if we should succeed. This administration also made sure that things were done the right way by the right people, and that there was an ever present willing audience in it at all times. The community at large, highly impressed by our various actions, decided too to repossess their college, both financially and morally. Finally, as you journey through this pictoral evidence of our accomplishments and unity, it is surprisingly untarnished by our heterogeneous composition and differences. I only need to sum up by reminding my fellow students to believe in Cicero ' s words that: There is no more sure tie between friends than when they are united in their objects and wishes , so we can effectively enjoy the above rare educational and atmospheric advantages now at our disposal.
