HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS You walk slowly, vaguely aware of the tassel tickling your cheek. The moving rhythm seemingly carries you down the aisle . . . a seat between each . . . not too fast now . . . hope my cap is straight. People and more people, yet not one face can you distinguish. Daring not to turn your head you search almost desperately for Mom and Dad . . . Well old gal, this is it! You sit. Someone speaks. But you? Your thoughts are a million miles across the last four years. Remember that first day . . . meeting all those new people. . . . finding new friends and wondering with awe just what the next four years would bring. Those first classes . . . books and more books . . . papers and more papers . . . Palio . . . (and we won that Sophomore year . . . Bells we were!) . . . the Corn Huskin ' Bee . . . and the graduation of our big sisters . . . picking daisies and serenading, and our Junior year, watch- ing with awe once again as the Seniors went through the year . . . wondering if the next year we could even begin to take their place. May Day and sun bathing at the swimming pool . . . lazy spring afternoons and hen parties . . . and now, these days are past and Meredith — every inch covered with happiness — is a part of our past. . . We have covered four college years — we are the seniors. You stand . . . names are called . . . you listen . . . and suddenly you feel bound with loyalty and devotion to each name — each face — and for all the girls before you who must yet walk down this same aisle . . . bound by memories and faces . . . bound by sadness, yet anticipating the years to come, you, a Meredith Senior, accepting with your diploma the responsibility to continue living and teaching as you have been taught. You walk out . . . back up the aisle and out into the sunlight — no longer a Senior, but a college graduate. 24
