I knew no one; I hadn't been to school for two years and I was about to go deeply into debt. What I found was about eighty new friends, a roller coaster ride of emotions, and people who thought the ill .symbol was a pitch fork or a cactus! I would like to thank all of you for allowing me to help you in the past couple of years. I really enjoyed it. (Maybe I like torture!) I know I'll be ninety and still hear Canahuate, Capparell, Catey in my sleep. Words can't express the overload of feelings and memories I have. Let me just mention, Musikfest, Jake, Open-Margin-Open, dirt bike riding, and all the guys at Summit. Steve, you are the most wonderful friend and husband a girl could wish for. I could not have finished if not for your support; the late nights, lab projects and your shoulder to cry on. Mom and Dad, thanks for your belief in me, the lab at home, the constant mailing of stuff; we should have taken stock in stamps! I love you. I expect to see all of you at the ADA conventions. Good luck wherever you go. I'll be thinking of you. Love, Mara. 20

Paul R. Christian, D.M.D. Bountiful, Utah Brigham Young University Accounting major, B.S. and M.Acc. (taxation) Fellow of the St. George Oral Cancer Society Named to Dean's List three semesters Family Membership Philadelphia Zoological Society Thank you God, Joanne, Abraham, Abigail, Noah, Meredith, Mom, Dad, Nancy, Earl, Eileen, Betsy, Chuck, and countless other family members and friends. Your long suffering and sacrifice have made this dentist's dream a reality. I hereby bequeath my left over sticky wax and green stick compound to the dental school staff to help keep this school together. The following reflects my feelings: I have much trouble getting along with my ideas. There was a daimon in me, and in the end its presence proved decisive. It overpowered me, and if I was at times ruthless it was because I could never stop at anything once attained. I had to hasten on, to catch up with my vision. Since my contemporaries, understandably, could not perceive my vision, they saw only a fool rushing ahead. —Carl Jung, German Philosopher. From this moment I began to conclude in my mind that it was possible for me to be more happy in this forsaken, solitary condition than it was probable I should ever have been in any other particular state in the world; and with this thought I was going to give thanks to God for bringing me to this place. -Daniel DeFoe, from his book, Robinson Caruso. Destined for greatness. These people have done more for me than I could have imagined. Classic family photograph
