ForeWordsCommitted to memorySome of our most endearing—and enduring—memories are from our days on a college campus. From l<strong>at</strong>e night ch<strong>at</strong>s with friendsto early morning classes with inspiring professors, the time spent in a university setting helps shape the person we are to become.The college years are a bridge between youth and adulthood. The trip across this span can be harrowing and exhilar<strong>at</strong>ing <strong>at</strong>the same time. When we asked alumni to share memories of their days here, the responses confirmed th<strong>at</strong> the <strong>Santa</strong> <strong>Clara</strong> experiencewas time well spent and a journey fondly remembered (Pages 2 and 3).On Page 14, we highlight the good deeds of The Flying Doctors volunteers, who don<strong>at</strong>e their time and money to provide freemedical and dental care to needy residents of remote Mexican villages. Bill Stover, an associ<strong>at</strong>e professor <strong>at</strong> <strong>SCU</strong> and a volunteerpilot, takes us along on a recent trip through his photos and journal entries.With the University set to wrap up a year-long celebr<strong>at</strong>ion of its 150th anniversary, associ<strong>at</strong>e editor Elizabeth Gillogly ’93 offersa tour of the University Archives (Page 18).Finally, many thanks to the hundreds of readers who responded to our annual magazine appeal in March.
