This year marks two occasions for us here at George Mason; it is the Bicentennial of our nation , and it is also the Twenty-fifth Anni- versary of our school. For these two reasons , we tend to look back at yesterday, because the present is the product of the time spent in the past. And we, the 1976 Mustang staff, hope to provide a memo- rable record of this celebrated year. Time; what is it? It seems that we spend so much of it in this building going to school. To what purpose? We spend our time absorbing what is going on around us. We made friends when we first entered this building, but after spending six years with the same friends, we part after graduation, going in our own directions. Yet, we always have the memories of the times we spent together in the past. Here we learn to make judgements, and, by making judgements, we mold ourselves for what we are going to become in the future. For yesterday is today’s past, and today will be tomorrow’s pasc. And by what we learn and feel in these passing days, we prepare ourselves for another step in life. So then, this is to remember . . .
