www 1... A,,. .a. ..,k,. . - P, .Mr All of this is more than enough proof that Char Binkley is quite a lady. However, along with all her responsibilities as wife, mother, teacher, speaker, and Director of Women's Programming with WBCL. she also took time to give of herselfas advisor forthe Class of l977. She served as advisor for them for two years. This would seem an insignificant position to some, but not to the seniors to whom she was a constant encouragement and delight. For her enthusiasm and self-giving, wc dedicate this book to her. . .along with her class, who will most appreciate this particular volume of The Vine, the Senior Class ol' 1977.
