Dedication There if WE grow, the harvest is your own. Shakespeare Growing up is not an easy or a simple process; on the contrary, it is a highly complex process which requires continuous encourage¬ ment, inspiration, and guidance. And so to you. . . Who have given so generously of your¬ selves in order to help us find ourselves, Who have sympathized with us in our failures and rejoiced with us in our triumphs, Who have been the often unnoticed di¬ r ecting force behind our every success, Who have instilled in us, through your love and understanding, those qualities of Christian character, which are so necessary if we are to live abundant lives, Who have so patiently aided us in our efforts to reach our goals, We, the Yearbook Staff of 1962, re¬ spectfully dedicate this first edition of THE AQUILA. to you—OUR PARENTS—as an ex¬ pression of our love and gratitude. 8
