ibecbcafion . . . As a sincere token of affection and gratitude which have been engendered in our hearts, we, the senior class of 1947, lovingly dedicate this volume of the Co-Ed-Word to Sister Rose Concepta, OP. The book itself is meant to keep in the minds and before the eyes of all, the noble Work Sister has accomplished in guiding the development of our school over incredible obstacles, in setting the high scholastic pace which fills our hearts with pride. The six years of sacrifice and prayer that she has willingly and proudly given have been years of struggle to overcome prejudicey a long pull uphill, bringing scores out of the shadows of doubt and darkness into bright reflection of Christian education and living. To you, Sister Rose Concepta, your seniors humbly dedicate this little volume. Page Z
