But more than this, we congratulate and thank you for the genuine interest and the unswerving loyalty that you consistently manifested during your four years at the College. It is truly characteristic of your class that you have chosen to highlight the transfer of the College to the New Civic Center as the theme of your Yearbook. Though you will not be the direct beneficiaries of the new physical facilities, you have the maturity and insight to rejoice in the realization that the expansion and development of St. Francis will allow your College to better serve future generations of Franciscan students. As you offer your pledge of life long devotion to Alma Mater please accept the pledge of the faculty and administration that we shall ever protect and encourage the finest traditions of St. Francis. We shall continue to offer the best possible undergraduate education in surroundings conducive to learning Our prayers and good wishes go with you as you enter the n world of graduate studies and business. I hope you will remember to pray for St. Francis College. Sincerely yours. Brother Urban, O.S.F. President
