Commencement weekend was a time for co nsid ering the future and reflecting on the past. For the 760 graduates who received degrees at UMR's 116th Annual Commencement, the occasion was a first step in to a new life, For the returning members of the Class of '39, it was a weekend for remembering clas - mates, telling stories about the good old days at MSM, sharing laughter, and reflecti ng on the past 50 years and the different directions their Jives have taken, The common thread that ran through the occasion was the feeling that everyo ne participating in com mencement had made a contribution to the proud tradition of excellence that is so much a part of the institution,
