It wasn ' t so bad after all, State by Terri Phillips Roberts Dear K-State: In four short years you have given us a home away from home and the opportunity to do almost anything that was socially acceptable and unacceptable. There were KSU vs KU sports classics. Union movie orgies. all-nighters and Vern ' s donuts. There was nervous suffering while awaiting eight or more end-of-semester GPA updates, being caught in cloudbursts with nothing but a soggy notebook, sitting next to classmates old enough to be our parents. You provided experiences that taught us what not to do twice and what usually worked all the time. You brought us together with people we knew we could trust; friends closer to us after one year than many of those we had known since childhood. Your classes and instructors made us realize what social and academic pressures are all about, even though we probably didn ' t learn half the knowledge they shoved our way. Now its time to graduate. Students from eight different colleges, thousands headstrong, are leaving. There is something, however, that unites us all despite the differently-colored tassles. You offered us a chance denied many of our parents and grandparents—a chance to participate In a four-year, mind-bending learning ex- perience. But maybe, because of it all, we ' re more capable of bearing whatever life brings. For better or worse. K-State. you have given us an education, and it wasn ' t always between book covers. In an age of increased unemployment where the cry of there ' s no future in a college degree emerges, you had something that kept us coming back semester alter semester. Call it ambition, restlessness, fear of the un- known or the desire to have a fair shot at the real world. Your guest speakers, advisers and professors advised us to look cautiously toward the future. Maybe we tried to listen, but we still have our own ideas of how it ' s all meant to be. As the realities we were warned about force alterations of our expectations, we ' ll look back on memories of the security you provided—perhaps with regret that we didn ' t appreciate it more. So long K-State, hello wor ld. Sincerely. the senior class graduation - 31
