Within this communiversity many an individual has found a strategic gateway to ultimate reality. There were frustrating moments where there existed the denial of gratifying certain impulses and desires, there were times of gelidity, and oftentimes the inevitable was distant and perception was impossible. However minds from another generation imbued with love and reason provided the necessities for the existence of an institution called George Washington Carver High School. These were the minds of those whose fusion led us into the mysterious adventure of mortal life; the minds of our parents. To those who passed through these walls on to greater heights and obstacles formented by unkind and alien existences, we enshrine this publication. It is but a meager enterprise because their contributions to this in- stitution are insurmountable. Undeniably, during times of utter despondency one must have an orderly mind. However the quality of the mind has a determinant called experience. In the adolescent stage of life, one has to be motivated by encoun- tering images and corporeal personalities. Because our parents' love and their willingness to help us to struggle to learn so that we could learn to struggle, we agglutinated at Carver High School. And of course, the prevalence of this institution has been perpetuated by their assistance. In accordance, a greeting to these parents and alumni is not an expedient to mark a new beginning, but it signifies a point of resolve and return whereby we may ponder and realize something in our hearts. We love you and recognize you, and on recognizing you we dedicate this yearbook. For to decline to look into the Mirror of Then, is to refuse to view the face of now. We are here now, but ideas and institutions change. Despite all, the future cannot neglect the fact that there was a common people fastened by a school called CHS. 15
