Music by the Fun and Games Commission and the TSU Tornados entertained the seniors who danced past the usual before-midnight curfew Student Life-71

After the melee of cap and gown distribution and the mass confusion at the Bermuda Shorts Day rehearsal, May 27, l969, finally arrived and 567 graduating seniors were panic-stricken when a half hour squall blew over Houston in late afternoon. Though the outdoor COITIITIQIICBITIBITI' began at 8 p.m. as scheduled, many found it hard to believe Mr. Schaper's prediction that it would all be over by 9:30. Commencement speaker James Robbins spoke of the man who had waited l2 years for his ship to return so that he could begin a new life: the story of Kahlil Gibran's Prophet. As soon as the last diploma was issued students threw computer cards into the air , and dignity to the winds: a streak of red appeared all the way up to the concession stand at the top of Tully Stadium. Order was abandoned in the crush to return caps and gowns and receive diplomas to put in the empty red folder received on stage. And it was all over by 9:30. Seniors Iabovej arrive in the snackbar after school to pick up their caps and gowns. The practice processional Iabove rightj advan- ces across the stadium at the ear- ly morning rehearsal.
