CARAT- The fourth quality of the diamond is the measure of its weight - carat. The number of carats determines the val- ue of the diamond. Let the carats of the M represent its weight In years. Every volume that Is added to the M” adds to this weight, and therefore to its worth. When the carat of a diamond blends harmoniously with the cut, the color, and the clarity, a fine gem evolves. The beauty of this gem, the unique- ness of Its character, may bring forth a fifth quality - class. Within these pages is found that quality: provided and perfected by seventy-five unique years; cut and shaped by the endeav- ors of seventy-five unique staffs. May this volume credit the previous staffs and complement their work on this diamond anniversary. Many students enjoy their lunch out on the patio.
