PRESIDENT DAVID CLICK eniors May 10-15 was Senior Week, and it started off with the bang of a convocation recognizing the top ag stu- dents. On Thursday there was the long-awaited Senior convocation, sponsored by Crimson Circle, at which the outstanding six per cent of the Class of 1954 were announced, along with the Big Ten, five women and five men, chosen from this group. This day was also unforgettable for those tapped for Crimson Circle and Mortar Board. May 15 meant the last big dance of the year, the Senior Ball in the CUB ballroom. The students won't soon forget the party at the Armory after the dance and the 2: 30 night which climaxed the gala evening. Cn May 29 at the Senior-Alumni Banquet, the C1255 presented its Hnal check in payment of its class pf01' ect, the fireplace in the outing room of the CUB. The WSC careers of most of the Class of 1954 ended 011 May 30 with the Baccalaureate service and the after- noon commencement exercises in Bohler Gymnasium. From commencement with diplomas in hand, some turned down the wedding aisle, others into the employ' ment offices or the draft board, while still others joined registration lines again for graduate work. But in whatever direction the seniors turn, they will remem- ber, with nostalgia, Washington State. 24
