|1 IS with mixed feelings of pleasure and regret that we look forward to a certain day in June, 1912, when we, the Seniors of the Engineering College of George Washington University, hope to receive those precious pieces of sheep skin, our diplomas. It is with pleasure that we look back on some hard work well done on many good times at old G. W. U, and on the friendships made there, which we hope will last through many years to come We remember with regret that our college days are almost over and that the time will soon be here to bid good bye to our fellow students and to the professors and above all to our real friend and helper. The Dean. Our record is far from perfect, but considering the many temptations of five- hundred ' tennis and shuffle-board, it really might have been worse. It is unfortunate that we should have to leave at this time just when the University is entering upon a new era but we take pleasure in turning over the benefits to our worthy successors, the class of “1913, “Here ' s to G W. U . fellows, and the class of 1912! 28
