Heaphy Vice President. ln 1956, the Notre Dame drawbridge was slowly lowered for us, a timid, bewildered group of 278 little Knights entering a new kingdom, unaware of what the future held for us. In the following four years the pattern of our lives at Notre Dame has proved to be different and personal for each of us in the class of '60, but somehow they all combine in the fabric of the larger Christ-pattern that unites all of us. Now for the last time we savor the experience of Notre Dame. We stand again before the school buildings high on the hilltop, with the city spread out below us, gleaming in the sunshine. We pause again to pray silently before Our Lady's statue, fronting the school building with quiet dignity. Again we enter the corridors where so often we have been swept along by iostling crowds of students rushing to get to class on time. Again we pass the familiar office and pause to watch the lines of students waiting for their slips . We walk by the classrooms and hear again the voices of the Brothers and laymen at their task of instruction. Now we pass through the cafeteria to experience again the noise and bustle of a busy lunch period. We pass the gym where the gleaming floors evoke the memory of the thump of basketballs, the cheering of the crowds, the lilting music of the Spring Concert and the dances. And now we are outside again, passing the football gridiron to watch our athletes going through their paces, and as we leave Notre Dame, we pause for a last quiet prayer before Our Lady, where we have prayed so many times before. But this time it is different, now for the first time perhaps, we are aware of how precious these days at Notre Dame have been. But Notre Dame will always be with us, not only in memories but in reality, forming an integral part of our lives. The principles we have learned, the experiences we have had, the inspiration we have received can never be lost and will serve as the founda- tion for a life centered in Christ. Christ said, I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly. Now, as we recross the drawbridge to confront the pathways of life, we are confident that our lives as men of Notre Dame will be, as Christ promised, abundant and rich in His blessings.
