Headmastefs Report One criticism of the traditional British Public tlndependentl Schools was that they tended to turn out students from a mold, that individuality was discouraged if not stamped out. George Bernard Shaw, it was suggested, would never have fulfilled his creative potential if he had spent his formative years in a traditional boarding school and Osbert Sitwell noted caustically in Who's Who that he was educated during holidays from Eton . One look at the 1986 class makes it obvious that SMU cannot be accused of turning out any one type of graduate. The class consisted of a diverse and colourful group of individuals in- cluding many admirable and forceful personalities. lt also represented a galaxy of talents. I-low many other SMU graduating classes have been able to claim the top physics student, and half a dozen of the top maths students, in Canadag the second-ranking debater tby Z points out of 14001 in the nation, the reputed top soccer player of his age in the country, a second-year member of the National Youth Orchestra, a disproportionate number of fine young athletes and actors, choristers, instrumental musicians, artists and scholars? No previous SMU class has had so many --- 63070 of its number --- qualify in one or more subjects for entry to second-year university. The 1985-86 graduating class set a record of achievement of which all of us at SMU, and all their parents, may be proud. But still more commendable than any of those achievements was the way in which this particular class faced some appalling bereavements. First. there was the grievous blow when a much loved classmate, Christine Duke of Regina, aged 17, lost a ten- month battle with leukemia. Then, barely two months later, Rev. Terence Davies, SMU's Chaplain and a revered counsellor and teacher, died of a heart attack, aged fifty-one. It was in facing up to these events that the members of the graduation class showed themselves at their best: courageous, caring and compassionate. For the Head Girl and Head Boy, Stacey Jessiman and Andrew Moore, and for the School Captains, Elizabeth McLeish and Gordon Morewood, it was inevitably a trying year. They displayed a strength of character, a sensitivity and an intelligence far beyond their years. I shall always be grateful to them. Of the 1986 Graduating Class, l make two predictions: first, that its members will surely cherish for as long as they live the memory of the friends whom they lost: second, that in the years to come this year's graduating class will be recognized as one of the most talented and able which the school has yet produced. To the Graduates of 1986, my thanks and all good wishes. Jong- SEL John Schaffter Headmaster
