More than that, however, this year marks a beginning, the start of what we hope will be a better future. The growth seen at Bridgewater State College this year far surpasses the growth of any single year previous. Whether this growth is put to use wisely depends on the future students. Since the ability of these students depends on us as the future teachers, we, therefore, hold in our hands the fate and destiny of this new era. This is an important and ominous responsibility. It is towards this gpal that we have been striving and shall continue to strive. We, the staff, hope you will enjoy your yearbook for its memories, but more than this, we hope you will look to it as an inspiration in the future.
