Campus life. In the fraternities, as in the organizations, Seniors were retiring and Juniors were taking over. At last we realized it—gradu¬ ation was not far away. The week¬ ends, the days, the classes were numbered, and quickly passed by. The war ended in Europe, and all eyes turned toward the Pacific, the eventual destination of so many of us. Interviews for civilians . . . orders for Navy men . . . Then . . . JUNE 23, and GRADUATION. In retrospect, we see three war¬ time college years. We had a lot of fun during those years, but also there was a lot of work; and the tour was not without its misfor¬ tunes and disappointments. Some¬ how, though, when we look back, the unhappy side of the picture filters back in memory and seems to evaporate; but the good times, the little laughs, and above all, our college friendships, rise to the front. When the speaker retires, and one by one the 85 members of the Class of ’46 rise to the graduation platform, there will be in many hearts a little prayer of thanks to God for making possible the attain¬ ment of a college degree in a time when so many have been deprived of that attainment. June 1945, and the “Class of , 46“ becomes only a title on a filing shelf in Boynton. Or will it? Not quite; for behind that title will stand a group of men held together in the spirit and common heritage of a Tech Engineer.
