They helped me To see BryanT Through Their eyes and Thus To have a more vivid sense oT whaT BryanT means To The sTudenTs Tor whom iT was esTablished. This conTinuiTy oT exisTence and experience is someThing each oT us Teels as an individual, and someThing which exisTs Tor such an insTiTuTion OT our socieTy as a school. ln a very imporTanT way, The school remains even aTTer you have leTT iT.

POSTSCRI PT FRGM THE EDITOR . . . We are all familiar wifh fhe word posfscripf, as if is usually defined. We hope fhaf our POSTSCRIPT is more fhan an affer fhoughf and fhaf if can serve as a link befween The pasf and fhe fufure. As we look Through fhe pages of fhe book, re- living fhe experiences we have had in Bryanf, we can again feel fhe ioys and anxiefies we felf so offen before. Perhaps we can compare our years in Bryanf fo a leffer. Our high school career, so full of learning and living experiences, could fhen be compared fo fhe body of fhe leffer. Like fhe leffer, foo, our years af Bryanf have fheir formal closing- graduafion. Upon graduafing, we have signed our leffer, louf whaf is fo follow? We rnusf nof send fhe leffer off and forgef if, buf insfead reread if. The four years have come fo a close and if is now fhaf a clear evaluafion of our progress can be made. We hope fhaf we can see how much we have mafured and how much we have increased our knowledge and undersfanding, in fhis review. l-lowever, when we fake fhis glance over our shoulders if is more imporfanf fhaf we recognize iusf where we have fallen shori' of our pofenfial, and fhaf we plan our fufure wifh fhe idea of correcfing fhese shorfcomings. Our leffer fhen is complefe as our high school careers are over, buf never should if be closed. If should remain open fo serve as a guide 'io fhe fulfillmenf of The goals we have sef for ourselves and hope fo achieve. REGINA FELDMAN, Edifor Four
