Once again Commencement Day has become a reality at Manhattan College. For us this day is unique. Today we are graduating. What will be our reaction? Let us record our thoughts as we participate in the cere- mony so that we may look back upon it one day and remember. As we move Up the senior walk for the last time, we can't help but remember the three years of waiting that were demanded before our first steps upon this revered walk in the spring of 1955. As we take our positions with the graduating class, the ceremony begins. We remember the hopes that we cherished as if it was yesterday. Today those hopes are passed realities about which we now reminisce. Now it has come. The great moment is at hand. How often, in those four years, we wondered, What will be my reaction at the big moment? Thank you, your Eminence. The sheepskin is ours. A new realm of life awaits. What will it hold?
