This yearbook should serve to remind you of all that your college years have meant to you: good times, good friends and a richer life. May you continue to en- joy all three, and may you in turn make the lives of the children you teach happier and richer. Be dedicated teachers, true to yourselves, faithful to your profession and loyal to your college. Although you leave the campus, you are never really separated from it. Whatever you do reflects upon your college, increas- ing or diminishing it accordingly. In the words of John Donne: No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main . . . . MARY E. McGAUVRAN Dean of Women, Director of Admissions B.S.Ed., State College at Lowell Ed.M., Ed.D., Boston University JOHN J. FISHER Dean of Men, Director of Extension Studies A.B., St. John ' s University A.M., Ed.D., Columbia University During the past four years you have lived, worked and matured in a rapidly expanding college. You have been called on to face great intellectual challenges on the campus in a very dangerous international situation. Countless personal problems, formerly solved for you by parents, now demanded your solution. You have emerged from this period of exciting transition more knowledgeable and more understanding. We, members of the faculty, have received our reward in that we believe we have helped you, the finest youth in the world today, to attain your first great intellectual goal.
