Technically, this is the second graduating class in Seattle University history. However, it is the first to be in attendance at Seattle University for a full scholastic year. As leaders, the seniors chose Gene Brenner, Jim Henriot. Pat Foley, and John Roller as president, vice-president, secretary-treasurer, and sergeant-at-arms. In spite of impending orals and the lost busy weeks before commencement, they found time successfully to sponsor the annual Mardi Gras. They've reflected throughout, the new importance and self-pride the school has assumed with its new title. Adult, active, and endowed with the Jesuit heritage of clear, forceful Catholic thought, they are going away intent upon making their respective marks in the world of science, the arts, religion and business. Few classes have been able to boast the qualities which make this one apparently capable of achieving these goals. 24
