CLASSES Day and night we were acquiring the ability to respond adequately to situations which may or may not have been previously encountered. As we marched to and from the classrooms. Student Council meetings. Night and Special Study Halls, and to Open Forum Assemblies, we came to per- ceive truths through thinking, memorizing, reasoning, and re- taining. We fully realize and appreciate that education is not merely preparing for life but is life itself.
