the Seniors Four years have passed and the time for taking leave has come. Men and women of the Class of 1948 are ready to leave these halls with the complete Catholic education that Seattle College has given her students for half a century. In addition to the fruits of a balanced curriculum, the graduates will take with them much that will not appear on their diplomas; memories of dances, debates. Cavern coffee and Coolee hikes, of ball games and funny things that happened in class. They will remember professors who have been their guides; fellow-students who have been their friends for four years. Perhaps they will even recollect how much they knew for certain as sophomores and how, little by little, all but the true certainties disappeared in the process of education. This year’s Seniors selected as officers; Mike Hoffmann, president; Dick Read, vice-president; Margie Ellis, secretary; Joe Chamberlin, treasurer, and Jack McAllister, sergeant-at-arms. The only activity sponsored by the class was the annual Mardi Gras costume dance in February, co-chairmaned by Valeria Kempf and Dick Read. Senior orals” in philosophy and religion constituted the main business of spring quarter and the last scholastic hurdle before graduation. Unlike the graduating class of song and story, these Seniors are not hothouse flowers.” Nearly all of them have held full or part-time jobs while attending school. A good percentage of them are veterans of World War II. Leaving behind them a College growing steadily in power and prestige the class of 1948 enters a familiar world with hope born of good preparation. 28
