Foreword ALMA MATER 4 to most of us the term is commonly associated with our school song. However, in Latin it signi- fies Hbounteous motherf, given by the Romans to certain goddesses -A Ceres, goddess of plenteous harvests and to Cybele, goddess mother of man and giver of the arts- and now applied to schools regarded as the foster motheru of those who have attended them. Following this same line of thought, we have chosen gods and goddesses as patrons of the various phases of our school life, while the lines of our school song have been interwoven with our school activities. ALMA MATER Our thoughts are held in loving thrall To this, our honored Hall. Within these Walls we've pondered o'er The paths that lead to All. The best that Wisdom gives, we gotg f - The prize belongs to all. Our loyal friendship's flower divine That bides in Blue and Gold. Chorus: Then here's a rousing shout to her And to her colors bold. We'll e'er be true and loyal to The noble Blue and Gold.
