Page Forty April and May were busy for the Carroll student. Sunshine and spring breezes pushed study in the background and the Carrollite's thoughts turned to love, golf, tennis, baseball, and track. We went to the prom and to our sorority and fraternity spring formals. We went to the all-school sing. We watched our boys compete in inter- collegiate track, golf, and tennis meets. The student senate elections brought a pleasant highlight to the month of May. We were living in our own happy little world, apart from instructors, books, and lectures . . . until Enal exams fell upon us. The seniors took theirs first and were graduated on May 23. Again the nine dormitories were lit up throughout the night as we prepared to meet our fate. Then we packed our suitcases and left for home. Most of us went home for three glorious months of vacation, but some of us left, never to return again as a student to Carroll. A few of us transferred to other schools, while a good number of seniors sought a job in their chosen fields of endeavor. But whether we are coming back or leaving for new worlds to conquer, the year 1948-49 at Carroll College will be a strong link in our chain of memories.
