We are humang we want to exceed our goals and that's good. lt keeps us on our toes. When the Charlotte Female Institute opened its doors in 1857, most of the students took courses in sewing and music. After gradu- ation, these women either got married or taught school. Now several doctors, lawyers, bankers, and scholars call Queens College their alma mater. Queens has grown up. It outgrew its first three campuses, and several buildings have been added to the present location. However, the physical plant isn't the only thing that has expanded at Queens. The curriculum is much wider than it was five years ago. Women from the ages of 18-22 are not the only ones to take advantage of what Queens has to offer. The New Dimensions program is designed for women over 25 who want to complete their college education. The Live, Work, Study pro- gram is designed to give older students the opportunity to live on campus, attend classes, and workin an outside job. The co-education- al Graduate School, New College, and Queens lnstitute of Lifelong Learning are three other offerings at Queens. These classes are taught in the evening to allow members of the com- munity to take advantage of our resources. Through the years, we have become better. We offer programs to a more diverse audi- ence. We've expanded our facilities. Our stu- dents are of a higher academic calibre. We're happy with it, but it's not enough. We're hu- man. We keep striving for excellence. Opening!5 R

BASINI - A Man of All Seasons Basini. What wonderful things l could tell you about the man that he would not tell you himself! Basini would be the first to tell you that he is handsome, charming, witty, a financial genius - an outstanding professor, and above all an enterprising entrepreneur. And his students, of course, agree with him. Yet, underlying this cocky exterior lies the heart of a warm and caring individual. He takes an interest not only in the academic lives of his students, but in their personal lives as well. He is never too busy in that huge office of his to take time out of his schedule to talk to anyone who pops in. Of course, you will be interrupted several times by the telephone or by other people, but he always keeps you there by a quick wink of the eye and a smile on his face. Over the four years that I have known Basini, he has always been the bright spot in my day. Of course, there have been times that I wanted to strangle that little Italian neck of his, but l know that the feeling has been mutual. Business majors are not the only ones that fall under his charms. Sociology, English, and Biology majors all alike know Basini by his jaunty walk, his quick wit, and by the way he calls everyone by the first syllable of their first name. He is truly a favorite around campus. Yet the ones that are really his girls are the seniors. He exemplifies the personality of our class, involved, energetic, caring, and fun-loving. Basini, you have said this year that you don't know what you will do next year without us, but the real question is, what will we do without you?
