, , , Out neAid tt MESSAGE TO THE SENIORS You Seniors, Class of 1957, have been active, participating members of the Suffolk Family for the past four years, and during this time you have formed many friendships that will endure for a long time. Among the many friendships thus formed, you will find that there are three or four that are particularly close and will endure for a long, long time. Now, three or four very close bonds of friendship may seem to in- dicate that you have failed in your personal relations with your fellow classmates. On the contrary, it proves that you have been very successful in revealing your true nature to your fellow students to the extent that they have found much good in you and want to share in that which is good. The memory of these close associations will provide substance for many pleasant recollections of events and situations which developed while you were together in the University. Soon you will become Alumni of Suffolk and will want to take part in the activities of the General Alumni Association. The gatherings of the Alumni will provide the medium inducive to the retelling of stories about your student days that have amused you over the years and you may want to recall events that in- fluenced your lives. You will be surprised how warm, wise and reassuring these remembrances of informal talks with your professors, the administrative officers and fellow students can be. Many times they give new meaning to life. I have stressed the importance of belonging to the Memory Group — Alumni Association. As time goes on, you will realize that the value of your Suffolk friendships will actually outweigh the value of the textbook learning., Always remember that as you go, so goes the Suffolk Family and as the Suffolk Family goes, so go you. So I say sincerely, farewell Class of 1957 and fare- you- well. ROBERT J. MUNCE President
