Every student who has walked through the door o f you r classroom is more enlightened for having been taught by you. Y ou r passion for literature and for language has been instilled in all o f us. Y ou r lectures reached and motivated everyone, not only by m aking us enthusiastic about literature, but also about life itself. It is seldom that one listens to a lecture w herein a m artini is used as a m etaphor for G o d ’s grace, or a dictionary gracefully glides across the room at an unsuspecting student w ho is ignorant of the m eaning o f a word. Y our lectures are far too lucid to be m isconstrued, far too witty to be unam using, far too interesting to be soporific, far too candid to lose our attention, and far too im portant to be dismissed. W e are touched by your concern for our welfare, not only for our years at Prep, but also for our future. W hether preparing us for the verbal section o f the S A T , conducting college visits, or w riting superb college recom m endations, you have m ade a typically stressful process and difficult decision for all high school seniors far m ore clear and far less intense. Y our sincerity has shown us a deeper m eaning o f the phrase “m en for others.” Y ou have created budding thespians in both the dram atics and the musicals you directed, but m ore notably, you have inspired us to appreciate all the products o f hum an endeavor. I ndeed, you have given us much. O f everyone we have m et in our Prep careers, there are few m ore m em orable. Your personality, dedication, hum or, and wisdom have inspired us. Please accept this dedication, S ir C am pion, as our way o f thanking you for having blessed our lives with your presence. Sincerely, T h e class o f ‘99
