The dictionary gives a very clear description of a rain- bow and yet, 1f a rainbow has not been experienced, tt 1s almost impossible to visualize what an arc of prismatic colors truly ts. Rain-bow, ran’bo, n. A bow or arc of prismatic colors, formed by the refraction and reflection of rays of light through drops of rain. The experience of “Rainbow” is not lim- ited to something visualized in a drop- let of water. All of us here at Dominican have formed our own rainbow. Each of us has become a hue, a graduation of color, vital to the formation and completion of our rainbow. Where the rainbow forms is not known. Yet, somehow the colors and hues blend together and remain unified when the rainbow ends. Each of us complement and add to the rainbow. Each of us is vital for the “Living Rainbow.” Therefore the Yearbook Staff proudly presents: AUBADE, 1981: RAINBOWS Wishes are heard and wishes are answered e re, iy a4 $ poe ds oes PREETI ares 1% abi. 400 TF?

To the faculty, who patiently allowed our photographers to take pictures of them. To the administration, who feel that Aubade is a worthwhile journal and thus allow it to be produced each year. To the students, who bought and sold boosters, hammed it up for the camera, and in every way supported yearbook. And most especially to Sr. Barbara, whose dedication, patience, and caring has made all the difference. We thank you all. 136 YEARBOOK STAFF Frank Portada — Editor ema Midge Beattie — Business Manager Suzanne Urban — Copy Editor STAFF MEMBERS Laurie Beauvais Maureen Harding — Photographer Mary Killoran Sr. Barbara Werner — Moderator Esther Soto Joe Parente — Photographer Linda Somma ee ALPHA CHI INDUCTION Denise Binkunski receives lighted candle New Inductees 138 MLIPIaVA (Glall SOWIE ING eee OMINICAN COLLEGF=., Alpha Chi, a National Honor Society for college students, has a Chapter on D.C.
