But for GW students it was a gala nev- er-to-be-forgotten. The theme of the prom, ‘‘We’ve Only Just Begun’’ conveyed thoughts of each senior. The be- ginning of a new decade, the be- ginning of a new life. Blue jeans and T-shirts were shed. Elegant dresses and tuxs be- came the attire. There were private dinner par- ties first. Also many “‘before’’ par- ties. Senior figure became a magic moment. Then, when the clock struck one o'clock, the cafeteria cleared. Magic once filling the air was gone. A night never to be forgotten.
