In retrospect, the past four years have been rather disturbing and trying to some seniors; nevertheless, the period ending this year has had its good measure of technical and educational growth. The daily tensions and gripes of these four years seem to recede as we write this, and in their place a core of accomplishment and mental maturity for the class of ’56 begins to appear. It has been four years of exciting group living and learning as well as individual learning. There have been many changes in teaching personnel and course content, changes quite typical of the Art School, for they ’ reflect a constant alertness on the part of the staff to maintain a program that will provide a finer balance between design and drawing and specialization. You have been subjected to more than one professional point of view, a fact which has served to point up your own idiom of graphic expression. You have been given direction with your training; and with continued study and growth after graduation, all of you can reach your maximum capacity. KHOSROV AJOOTIAN James C.
