Life is a game. You're cither going to lose or you're going to win. Many of us go into the game feeling defeated before we even play. Just because the color of our skin may be black and we are living in a predominantly white oriented world, this does not mean that we can't succeed. We can succeed and we will succeed. Morris College is our stepping stone to success. Yes. this institution of 74 years of age is the place at which we will obtain the necessary knowledge that will thrust us into the mainstream of life. Though Morris is where we will obtain our higher educational training from a competent faculty and staff who are here to feed our minds their knowledge, we can not and should not be totally dependent on Morris. We must be able to learn outside the classroom. Reading books, magazines, or staying atop current events should be major priorities of the serious minded college student. Don't sit back and let time slip away because time waits on no one. Don't be an individual who 10 to 20 years from now will haunt himself or herself by saying I wish I had done this in school or I wish I could have done that. Do it while you've got the time and don't let anyone say you can't. In every endeavor you choose to take, be it now or in the future. I wish each of you the best of luck. Remember, keep the faith in the man upstairs. You'll need him with each step you take. In closing, once again I wish you luck and I ask you to set your goals and believe in the dream. I'll miss all of you. 91 STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION OFFICERS Sitting, L to R Virginia Gail Carter—Secretary Michael Forehand—President Vanessa Sutton—Assistant Secretary Gwen Williamson—Business Manager Standing, L to R Harry Lash—Second Vice President Melvin Mack—First Vice President Harold Scott—Parliamentary William Dixon—Board of Trustees, Student Representative Stanley Marshall—Chaplain Not Pictured Gloria Byrd—Treasurer CLASS OFFICERS • • • SENIOR CLASS Left to Right: Gail Carter—Treasurer Glenda Howard—President Willa Mae Reaves—Parliamentarian Harold Scott—Business Manager JUNIOR CLASS Sitting Left to Right: Dale Davis—Vice President Carlos Taylor—President Priscilla Marshall—Secretary Standing Left to Right: Linda Moore—Assistant Secretary Cathy Morgan—Senate Anthony White—Serg. at Arms Jackie Wise—Treasurer Cynthia Warren—Chaplain •X.
