Dionne Warwick thought
Red Cross was
only about hurricanes.
“True. I always thought of
Red Cross as a kind of rescue
force in times of disaster and
little more.
“Then I learned that in
towns and cities across
America, Red Cross gives the
kind of help to individuals that
you rarely hear about, because
it doesn’t make headlines in the
newspaper.
Lacey said the specific graduation
times for the different colleges have
not been set yet. “We re waiting to
see the size of each,” he said.
“This graduating class will be the
largest in the history of A&M,” he
said. “We estimate the number of
applicants at 3,550.” There was a
graduating class of 2,752 last spring.
