1977 I V 198 YEARS Special Edition The 1987 Edition of THE ARCH is a very Special one indeed. The graduates who proudly go forth this year leave behind a Campus that is visibly different lidi they came as freshmen. There buildings and beautification to irit unA CA purpose which fills the heart. This year ' s graduates embody this new spirit and carry with them the dreams of the entire College Family — underclassmen, alumni, parents, faculty, staff and administration — as well as their own. As we pause and reflect upon the past year we realize that these positive changes are the culmina- tion of the last ten years in particular, which repre- sents perhaps the most dynamic period in the Col- lege ' s 108-year history. In this Special Edition of THE ARCH therefore, we celebrate these Ten Years Of Progress, proud in the knowledge that this is only the beginning of greater things yet to come.
