Page 44 - YB1996

A Collective Sigh of Relief .............................................. It happens every year. Members of the graduating class line up in their black caps and gowns, adjusting their coveted WMC hoods. They file into PELC in neat rows, following the faculty who guided their studies for the previous four years. This year's commencement exercises were marked by an icon of our childhood, a man who, in many ways, defined who we have become. A special, honorary degree was awarded 10 Bob Keeshan, television's Captain Kangaroo. His address inspired us all to make the world a better place. As the Class of 1996 makes its way into the world, we wish them well. We know that the newest WMC graduates will make us proud, carrying with them the memories and the knowledge they gained throughout their years here at Western Maryland. 40 All Aboard!
