Graduation Culminates Years of Work Black robes in a sea of faces—solemnity—a time of fulfillment, yet a time of promise. Graduation was impressive to those who watched, but it made a deeper impression on those who walked forward to receive a piece of paper. This ceremony symbolized those four character-molding and personality-forming years which had comprised the life of a college undergraduate. A few moments on stage, a quick handclasp—then those who had walked forward walked away away from coffee in the Wigwam and the same old people—and hopefully toward uncertainly. PROUD PARKNTS mingle among the happy graduates after the ceremony to share their mutual joy and to offer their congratulations on the attainment of a goal. GRADUATES LISTEN intently to the speaker, stopping occasionally to check their program for the sequence of the baccalaureate service. 22
