To the Class of 1948 In publishing this first postwar year- book, the students of Suffolk University, class of 1948, are entitled to great praise. Few in numbers, the class is nevertheless notable in the personal history of its members, some of whom entered Suffolk University prior to the war. For many of them, military service of the most gruelling nature has formed a hiatus in their college careers. Some of them have gone through the horrors of combat in foreign lands, suffered wounds, were prisoners of war. Others were shot down from dizzy heights and escaped death in miraculous manner. To every member, the recent war has meant serious dis- arrangement of plans and unexpected obstacles to overcome. Yet, for them, the goal of a college degree is now in sight. Suffolk University, like its students, has suffered greatly during the war. Never in its existence has it lived through a more desperate crisis, and never has it experienced such hardships as those endured during the war years. The important fact is, however, that Suffolk University lives on — that the college departments which have undergone the greatest bombardment have emerged strong and vibrant with life. As the President of Suffolk University, I salute with pride and satisfaction this post- war graduating class. (Halter m. Burse
