Senior Class Officers Anita M. Wine Beatrice M. McDonnell Gloria C. De Angelis Fannie Zetes President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer The college days of the Class of 1951 have come to a close. This is regrettable, for it means that we are leaving the close community of the college and are entering the larger and more formidable community of the world. It is only natural that we take our first steps with some fear and trepidation. The present state of the world, with the threat of wide-spread destruction, may well in- crease our apprehension. Some of our elders seem already resigned to what they consider an in- evitable doom. We must not fall prey to this spirit of despair. We must have the intelligence and the %vill to resist the forces of evil, and to work for a world in which future graduating classes need not write such words as fear, evil, and destruction. { 20 }
