June 1965 TO THE CLASS OF '65 You belong to Cuyahoga Community College's first graduating class. You are the prime reason why Cuyahoga Community College came into being. You came to a found1 ing institution in September of 1963 as part of the largest initial junior college enrollment in the history of American education. You were one of 3,000 youths and adults, fu11- and part-time students --- all drawn to Cuyahoga Community College for a diversity of reasons. You studied and attended classes in a building which had seen long service as a pub1 ic elementary school. and, later, as a junior high school. You were part of what has been described as the'tlirac1e on 14th Street". It was only fitting that the venerable structure called Brownell should become the starting point for another vitally needed institution, Ohio's first public community college. You will be graduated on June 11. You will take divergent paths. Some of you will go forth prepared for employment in accounting, business management, secretarial science, industrial supervision and other semiprofessional vocations. Some of you will transfer as juniors to senior institutions. Those of you who do will pursue degrees in teaching, law, business administration, medicine, engineering and other fields. Some of you may discontinue your formal education. All of you will leave the College better prepared to assume a meaningful role as an individual, in marriage and as a citizen. We --- the Board of Trustees, the Administration, the Faculty, the Staff are proud of you. You a member of the Class of 165 wishes of us all.
will take with you the best Sincerely,
E ~~-._ --.. ~r1es E. Chapman-
