June Means Graduation June came upon us all too soon. Too soon were the seniors at- tending Class Night and seeing their friends, members of the Class of '59. receiving awards they so richly deserved for three years of service and devotion. All too soon they attended Baccalaureate service and listened to inspirational messages that were to mean so much to them. Messages full of phrases such as military service. college education, and your responsibilities. And too soon came that last night when, dressed in cap and gown, they passed across the stage at War Memorial Auditorium. The handshaking, the tears, and that diploma in their hands all seemed so unreal as they sat and listened to Mr. Brewer as he gave them that last bit of advice. And afterward the parties, Oh, those parties! On one of the greatest nights of their lives, of course, no seniors could be expected to get in till dawn and although the aura of graduation still hung in the air, they revelled all night. Then on they went to the sun-sparkled days of houseparties where they reminisced together and cried a little over old memories of Lauderdale, still fresh in their minds. Finally the time came when they returned, by ones and twos, to stand misty-eyed before main hall to say. Thank you, Lauderdale, just that and nothing more, before setting out to make their lives and futures. 53 Flying L’s Blue and White
