Dear Cavaliers: This letter will serve as both my first and final message as Chairman of the Board of Trustees to you, the students of Mount de Sales. During my lifetime I have served on many boards, but this one, without a doubt, has been the most rewarding because of the dedicated commitment by each member to Mt. de Sales. Without exception, every person on the Board has unhesitatingly accepted every challenge presented. The Board is more than just a governing body. It is an amalgam of individuals, each of whom has made a significant contribution to the past, present and future success of Mt. de Sales. They are a highly diverse group consisting of religious, Catholics and those of other faiths, doctors, educators, accountants, business men and women. In most cases these individuals are only names and you probably perceive the Board to be rather remote because we have no direct line of communication with you. For that reason I welcome the opportunity to provide a little insight into the workings of the Board. Our principal objective has always been to provide a quality education for each of you, to prepare you to further your education in college, and then to move on to a useful and productive life in society. The Board has been called upon to make many tough decisions through the years, some of which were probably not popular with every member of the Mount de Sales family. As you mature and move through life, you will better appreciate the fact that respon- sibility is an integral part of life which sometimes calls for difficult decisions. As long as those decisions are made in good conscience and with the best interests of those affected always in mind, criticism is more readily accepted. On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I want to wish each of you every success with your education, career and home life. As you proceed through life, my only hope is that you will look back on your Mount de Sales days with better appreciation for the Christian education provided in this Mercy school. Sincerely, Sad Pr Jen — David J. Zuver, airman MDS Board of Trustees
