It seems to me that in a very real sense you, as graduates will he the instruments by which our school will he measured. a means of of Your success, or lack of it, in college and in business, or in other positions will measure the scholastic preparation which the school has given you. Your civic interest, or lack of it, will measure the citizenship training which you have received at VV.M.l. Your personal ideals and attitudes will measure the character development which has come to you through chapel exercises, classroom contacts, extracurricular activities and responsibilities, as well as through all the other forces that have acted upon your lives during the past four years. 1 hope that you have here received preparation which will cause your Alma Mater to be regarded highly by everyone. It is not so important, however, that the school stand high as that you, the W.M.I. class of 1943, become women of high standards and achievements. 7
