Departmental Examinations This year the average in the Final Provincial Exam- inations were not as high as in previous years. Neverthe- less, with a somewhat larger graduating class we are pleased that 38 boys out of 41 achieved high school graduation. Furthermore, 97.3% of the papers written were passed and this is slightly higher than in 1966-67. A number of this years graduates are going to uni- versity further afield. Among them are Christopher Grauer who will attend Wesleyan University in Connecti- cut; David Winslow attending Amherst College in Massa- chusetts; James Peck who was accepted on an early decision and who will increase our number of graduates at McGill and Stephen Luce who will go to Marietta Col- lege in Ohio. To them, and, indeed, to all our graduates go our sincere best wishes for a happy and successful future.

Millar Editorial Shawnigan is indeed a unique school, in both its geographical situation and way of life. Those of us that have been at the school for a number of years have seen the winds of change and more than once have probably remarked, ' You should have seen it in my first year . . . ' and so on. However these changes can hardly be avoided and in fact can make our community a better and happier place to live in. Better in the sense that the mechanical side of school life runs smoothly; happier in that the spirit of the boys is sharp. Spirit or loyalty is the stepping stone to pride which is both loyalty to one ' s school and self-respect. There are many things in which we can take pride and give respect in our school. Take the gardens for instance — they are undoutedly one of the most beautiful of any school in the province. The teams are successful, the buildings are impressive, and more developments are on the drawing board. But what about underneath the surface? Here pride is developed from three main aspects which can really only work together: Unity, Involvement, and Con cern. Unity in purpose, involvement in all school activities as well as school governing, and real concern for what goes on around us. Having achieved these, the rest will fall into place, to preserve the uniqueness for which Shawnigan is widely known. So let us not rest on our laurels hoping for the best, for they will eventually wilt if we do not water them. 15
