XAVIER VICTOR DEREPPE Education makes the man. Truly one of our most fascinating as well as intelligent and friendly classmates is Xavier who came to us from Belgium in his junior year. Since that time he has mastered the English language better than many of us and puts still more to shame with his excellent marks. Yet he always has time for a laugh, a cheerful word or help to a classmate. M. I. T. will be fortunate indeed with such a student enrolled in its freshman class. Bonne Chance !
