SENIORS

« SENIOR TO SENIOR In September of 1974 many of us came together for the first time to share a unique experience for better or worse that has ena- bled us to grow as individuals. During our freshman year to- gether we enjoyed the orientation of college life, while still con- tributing to the community a sense of spirit that was distinctly our own. As sophomores, we joined to- gether to fight for our share of the University. While some sec- tions of the University seemed to grow in leaps and bounds, our share became smaller with less space, more students and higher tuition. Although some members of our class left us after that year, those that remained were now becoming more intensely in- volved in every aspect of student life from theater and art to ath- letics and pinball. In our Junior year, we found the true meaning of a united col- lege when all of the prerequisite courses finally made some sense and when we settled down into our major concentrations. Unlike other Universities of our own size, where there is a common bond felt between departments or colleges, Suffolk ' s ability to join together is unique. It spreads throughout our University finding security in numbers and becom- ing stronger by its diverse mem- bership. Finally, as seniors we began to look forward to June for the new chances it would bring to us — to spread our educational wings, for which we crammed for every exam — but also an opportunity to look back to all of the Christ- mas parties, Junior-Senior Weeks, Suffolk plays and after- noons at the Red Hat. As we re- member back, we have grown as people to appreciate far more in life than we did as freshmen. We can feel confident that the Suf- folk Community is indeed a better place because we came together here to share a brief period of our lives. As for myself, serving you as President these four years has been an experience I shall long remember and cherish. Thank you for allowing me to share the Suffolk experience that will allow all of us to face the future with confidence. .
