Commencement exercises on June 18 re- united many of this group while others were absent due to military service. Those members of the junior class who will complete their studies at the close of the J uly Naval semester also participated in the festivities of Senior Week. Colorful Homecoming activities began the Senior Year of 1943-44 with a flourish of Blue and White in spite of the wartime limitations. Marian Mc- Kaig and Imogene Burnside were the co-chairmen of the week-end to direct the program and welcome returning alumni.
