Looking back in retrospect,the year has had both its ups anddow ns, and has proved itself to bequite an experience. Aside from theendless piles o f hom ew ork, and thestraining bundles o f red tape, our firstyear in college has overall been amemorable one, forming friendshipsand creating moments we will neverforget.As Freshman Class President. 1have w orked throughout the pastschool year for the com mon interesto f the Class o f 1991. Paralleling thegreat moments we have experiencedwere numerous problems and ques tions. and as class president. I havemade sure that quickly I sought andfound to all o f them. In all facets offreshman life I have w orked toeliminate little dilemmas that make lifesometimes irritating. Through meetingwith the head of the co-op office andby suggesting changes that wouldmake the co-op course more enjoyableand beneficial. I have helped to resolvethe many problems and disappoint ments freshmen saw with this m an datory class.By serving on the Food ServiceCom m ittee, I have worked to help in stitute changes in the food service of fered to o ur class, in o rd er to providea system that was up to par wtih ourtastes and needs. 1 have talked withdifferent adm inistrative heads toresolve difficulties m yself and otherfreshmen have experienced at theHealth Center.
