78 THHNH5, morn hnd DRD by Tommy Smith At the suggestion of School Board President Som Lambert, the Senior Class of 1983 rose, turned to the audience, and said, Thanks, Mom and Dad. These were the people who for twelve years had given encouragement and help, and this night was as much for them as for the graduates. It was an evening filled with emotion and pride, mixed with solemnity, joy, and sadness, and it was a special evening for everyone con- cerned. As the Top Five members of the Class of 1983 spoke to their peers about the promises of the future, each member held to his own personal memories and dreams of tomorrow. When at last, Dr. Brian Knutson invited the seniors to come on stage to receive their diplomas, these was a moment of hesitation before the thrill of the event actually became a reality. Proudly, the seniors marched across the stage of Memorial Hall and received the diplomas that they had worked so hard to ocqure. Each tassel was changed from one side of the mortar board to the other, and in that moment, the 1983 Seniors became alumni. 1.
