I i In the lower left are the black mountains of our earth and the M of ourselves, men. Above us is set the star, the learning, asking the mean¬ ing of our world and of our¬ selves. And so the cycle moves on without end. The high goal of our quest. To the right shines the sun, the light enlightening everyman who comes into our world. In this light we read the book of seal, like reality, has no edges; its heights and depths, its width and breadth, lie open to the infi¬ nite.

When we arrived on cam¬ pus four years ago, we were thrust into an apparent game of survival. Professors, ad¬ ministration and upperclass¬ men overwhelmed us, and success seemed unattainable. But we did not give in. We learned quickly that the key to excellence is a develop¬ ment of persistence, self-re¬ spect and a desire to learn from others. Manhattanville allowed us to form these qual¬ ities within ourselves. Our efforts continued. We were constantly presented with new challenges. From academics to clubs, to on- campus jobs and eventually to internships; we learned to strive forward. Each search for excellence brought us to a new plateau, a new begin¬ ning. The process is indeed on¬ going. As we continue to ac¬ cumulate the desire to use our potential from those ahead of us, we are setting an example for those behind. At Manhattanville, excellence breeds excellence. George Sheer Excellence 5
