Columbia university became a component chapter in 1 934. the members of epsilon epsilon chapter extend to you, the class of 1970, our heartiest congratulations and best wishes for a lifetime of success and happiness, we sincerely hope that your professional career will be guided by the standards you have been taught and by the high principles which have served our members. 93 Pcoutcr ■ e= ?y V ._ ? ze dental Columbian 1970 barry bienstock andy blitzer amy fink bob gabriele dave kritchman carl meese frank petronella geoff robinson al russell steve sachs scott tolbert dental hygiene 95 faculty mrs. patricia m. mclean, r.d.h., m.a. director ■ m. diane curl, r.d.h., m.s. julie a. wehrle, r.d.h., m.s. 6 kathleen silko, r.d.h., m.s. mrs. janet hotger mclean, r.d.h., m.s. staff mrs. man ' mccue administrative assistant joan opperman 97 masters 1969 karoline becker b.s., m.s., Columbia nancy b. boren b.s., Indiana university m.s., Columbia marilyn jean hagg b.s., California state college m.s., Columbia adrienne iwanaga b.s., university of California m.s., Columbia not photographed: eleanor faulkner b.s.. fairleigh dickinson university m.s..
