“The doors swing open, music permeates the silent summer air. Thirty-three blue togas slowly, gracefully descend the stairway. A circle is formed, a tradi¬ tional Ilail Mary scarcely audible begins.” Suddenly it was over. The four year cycle is brought to completion; its signifi¬ cance becomes a part of the historical past. 1969 ... a year of great success and indescribable failure. Man is scientifically equipped to navigate the outer limits of space yet physically, economically, politically and spiritually incapable to accept and live with his fellowmen. It was a year of seeking answers to questions never dared to be challenged. The world aches with hatred, apathy, prejudice. Its resources are drastically drained. Cries of help are heard from its cities, over-populated, rat-infested and air-polluted. Here and there students throughout the nation respond to the plea. They rally for such causes as—“Clean the Air!”, “Conserve Our Water¬ ways!”, and “Feed the Hungry!”. 1970 initiates a new decade. Americans, motivated by the conditions of the country join forces to combat America’s maladies. Senior year was an open observation of a world in crisis, a year of individual and group CONCERN for a live-in, a peace-in, a love-in world. With Graduation comes parting of the ways toward ever progressing involve¬ ment-becoming more deeply aware of life’s meaning in order to extend oneself more fully in relation with others. Living life to its fullest extent demands involvement. We have learned this philosophy. To live it is our task, our unique privilege, our challenge.
