thinking back Graduation meant turning the page, so to speak, or of coming to the bend in the road only to find another bend I guess what I ' m trying to say is that it signified a new beginning. The actual day was a jumble of thoughts and feelings. None of us could believe we were really saying good-bye, becoming Old Girls, going to university or other prospective careers. None of us could believe we were graduating. Not many people can understand how one can become attached to a school, its people, its buildings and its grounds. I know I did in the short time I was at Branksome. Perhaps that explains the mixture of happiness and sadness of graduation. I knew that I was leaving but I also knew that I could always come back and be welcome. I ' m sure that all graduates share this feeling which gives Branksome a sense of continuity and future. The weeks prior to our graduation day were really busy and the actual day seemed to fly right past me. However the more recent installation of the prefects had a lot more significance to me. I had had the summer holidays and a month of university to appreciate all Branksome had to offer. It was very hard to think that this was the last ceremony I would be an active part of. - )ane Wiley, 1977 prefect Eileen Smith, Head Girl in 1977 I ' m now at Princeton University and am having a won- derful time. Besides the heavy and demanding workload there are tons of extracurricular activities: movies to see, concerts to attend, lectures by visiting VIPs to listen to and art exhibitions to go to. But don ' t get the wrong idea — not everything we do is educational or serious. We Princetonians do occasionally (just occasionally, mind you) have our hyper moments when we get very punchy. - Patty Kuo, 1977 graduate A major problem at university is deciding what to wear in the morning. However an easy solution is to pull on my Branksome blouse. The excuse — no time for laundry, haven ' t done it for weeks! - Diana Harris, 1977 prefect, editor-in-chief of SLOGAN Branksome was an invaluable op- portunity to get to know different people. When one gets into the outside world these chances become fewer. - Liz Herridge, 1977 graduate
