Anita Williamson, president ot the Class of l96O, presents to Helen O'Connell, president of the Class ot l963, the plaque and colors, which will be theirs until graduation. LANTERN, DAISY CHAIN, cap and gown, are indispensable segments ot' lite at lm- maculata. Through these symbols are manifested love and respect for that l. C. spirit which is so much a part ot the col- lege. These are the keys which will, in future days, unlock student hearts allow- ing past hopes and dreams to be relived. Herodotus, Sappho, and Pindar could reminisce of Athenian culture, of Olympian gods, and ot Macedonian triumphs. Yet unlike these Grecians, whose dreams of bygone glories must dim with age, lm- maculatans will have memories which will live again and again in the persons ot future students on campus. Senior tradi- tions are a precious part of these mem- ories.

HC QR SQCIETIE GREEK CULTURE ENouREs-its ideas revive with each new civili- zation. It is a permanency be- lievable only when one considers the penetrating intellects and art- ful hands which formed her monu- ments of mind and of matter. The Clouds and Prometheus Bound will die only when drama itself succumbs. Transcending all time, the Metaphysics of Aristotle epi- tomizes the endurance of Hellenic tradition. intellectual achievement at lm- maculata does not anticipate such unending recognition. However, the present does offer assiduous study and sensitive scholarship a fairly lasting tribute. The college rewards deserving students with membership in various collegiate and national fraternities.'The past considered, honor societies strive for a fruition and synthesis of the student's mental, cultural, and social attitudes which will enable her to influence, at least, present society and the immediate future. Eligibility determined by scholarship in literature, Patricia Henkel, Anita Williamson, Eleanor Rowland, Therese Thistle, Antoinette Iaquinto, Kathleen Brown, Joanne Kazimer, Joanna Cahill, Mary Jo Wilson, Kathleen Dugan, and Marguerite Canavan were chosen as formal members of Lambda Iota Tau, National Collegiate Society for Students of English and Foreign Literature.
