The forgotten custom of Class Day with its class song, poem, prophecy, and history has been revived. Incidentally, we are the first regfular class to graduate under the twelve-year plan. We'vc enjoyed our years together and we're grateful now that the added year and ninth month were part of our heritage. lt has prolonged our happy life here. We leave our experiences and testimony of our happiness and ggrutitude as a heritage to those who are to follow.
