EDDY, DWYER WILDER, CARRIER SENIOR CLASS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE T'hH Big Four’’ of the year have come through unscattered—though we should have bruised hands from the hearty hand shakes we owe them for their untiring efforts to keep us on the straight and narrow path marked Convocation.'' Of course, old man War sat in at every meeting and had his say, limiting many activities, but is was all for one and one for all” in governing R.I.T’s first graduating class. We kept our council pretty busy representing us at alumni association meetings, and other activities that includee the school. And didn't we swell up with pride as we saw our president, Jack Wilder, acting as M.C. at all the school assemblies! When the going was rough, the vice president was there ready to help Jack out. Ginger Dwyer kept the pencil dying as secretary, and Jeanne Collier, treasurer, accomplished the feat of keeping those red and blue columns balanced. With Mr. Clark as our competent and faithful adviser, we were assured from the start of a successful year. This year we returned to school to find ourselves bestowed with the honor of being the first graduating class from Rochester Institute of Technology. We pride we switched stickers on notebooks, viewed our new name above the Eastman Main entrance, received a's and b s instead of h's and d’s, and vowed to make the school proud of its first graduating class. The excite- ment of graduation, however, is mingled with the excitement of the latest news coming in. Our plans for the future dearly portray this effect. Many of us will be joining the Armed Forces, working in defense plants, or joining our husbands, as well as carrying on in the everyday industries so important to our post-war world. 2
