19 3 3 PRLSQRIPTO 0 0 0 o 0 o 0 0 Class President's Message INCE I have been president of my class for the past three years, and look upon this as a highly esteemed honor, I wish to take this opportunity to express to all my friends my sincere appreciation for the privilege to represent such a fine class of ladies and gentlemen. Acting in this capacity has meant much to me, in that it has made it possible, through continued associations, to acquire many new and lasting friendships, which are valuable assets in life. After all, what good are achievements and education without friends. The Senior Class wishes to express its sincere gratitude to the faculty, who, through many years of careful research work, was able to instill in us the essentials necessary for a thorough understanding of the theoretical, the practical, and the ethical applications of pharmacy. We especially wish to thank Dr. Thayer and Professor Schlichting for the willingness and co-operation they have given us in the capacity of class sponsors during the past three years. As we are about to graduate, the one outstanding accomplishment that we have looked forward to ever since we began our educational careers, we look back over the past three years with considerable joy and amusement. As freshmen We entered school three years ago, having little or no idea what the future had in store for us. We had gathered here from different parts of the country, each having a definite determined ambition-to acquire a college education. Gradually pursuing our subjects, we became acquainted with and accustomed to the college environment. Through our common interests and co-operative aims our college tasks became interesting and gradually brought about ties of friendship among the classmates. This unison and harmony among students lessened our burden since we are all striving for the same goal, success There was little class activity during our freshman year. When we were not in class, we spent our time getting better acquainted with each other through an occasional ball game or a stroll through the park. During the junior year we responded to an air of confidence as we felt that we had accomplished considerable toward acquiring a general knowledge of Pharmacy. Although the course was strenuous, we can look back upon many interesting happenings during the year. And now, as seniors, we are full of desires and ambition, ready to step out and face the world with a great deal of confidence, knowing that we can accom- plish any task that may confront us.
