T lzzk wzkh wzll remam with zu always ffws-umm IDOCTOR AND MRS. kiEORGE VV. LLOYD TO THE CLASS OF 1961 As l write to you the snow lies deep and white outside my window and the world is hushed and expectant, waiting for the coming Of-Cl1I'lSfII111S. Expectancy must surely be a Senior word, for it is in all your hearts as you look forward to gradua- tion and your first exciting college year. l like the recent comment of a college president that Hall high performance takes place within a framework of expectancyu, with the exception perhaps ofthe word framework,'. This has to nie a confining sound Whereas expectancy is an uncaged word, free as a bird to lift and to soar. It is a precious gift, akin to wonder. and one that I would make my graduation wish to each one of you, not for just this year but for all the years to he. Expectancy lends man's spirit wingsg it can turn the most humdrum of days into rare adventure, and the glance of a passing stranger into the warm smile of a friend. My love to you always, and every good wish. Christmas 1960 S

In appreezntion of then' contribution to Mount Vernon DOCTOR GEORGE W. LLOYD, President During Mr. LlOyd,s absence in 1943, Mrs. Lloyd carried alone the burdens of a scattered school and a warringworld, brought so close to the heart by the arrival of two little nephews from England for the duration of the war. Mainly because ofthe work ofthe President and Headmistress did Mount Vernon survive the war. In 1946 the school on Foxhall Road was opened. The only buildings standing were the Academic Building, Somers House and three partially built college dormitories. There were no inside doors, no refectory, no roads, no trees. Throughout the years a refectory, a library, a gymnasium, science build- ing, dormitories, inflrmary, presidenfs house, and new gate house have been built. Mrs. Lloyd has personally supervised the landscaping, making the campus one ofthe most beautiful anywhere. 7 Under the leadership of Dr. and Mrs. Lloyd, Mount Vernon has maintained and improved its high standard of academic achievement. Three visits of accrediting committees have resulted in the unconditional accreditation ofthe school. Dr. and Mrs. Lloyd have lived in three locations ofthe school, including the attic of a Spring Valley house. They have watched the graduations of over thirty classes of Mount Vernon girls, for each one of whom they have always had time to understand her problems and to share her happiness. In admi- ration of their ability, high ideals, and untiring labor, in appreciation for keeping Mount Vernon alive for us, and in gratitude for their sympathetic interest in students, Cupola of 1961 is lovingly dedicated to Dr. and Mrs. George W. Lloyd.
