We’ll always remember our Senior year with all its thrills—Senior Recognition Day with our caps and gowns—our new President and his inauguration—Stunt Night—our last Boar’s Head Dinner-parties, picnics—keeping cars on campus—plenty of week- ends (and what weekends)—each one a wheel during Senior Week—going job and apartment hunting—down the aisle for that diploma and graduation at last! Four of the best years of our lives—four years of seeing QUEENS grow and hoping we have grown with her.
