Senior Speech Illustrations: Week 18
February 4, 2017
Below are the illustrations of excerpts from the senior speeches given on Thursday, Feb. 2.
“Countless have explored the unknown, throwing themselves into an experience they could not plan for, could not research, could only dream about,” senior Jack Indritz said during his speech on Feb. 2.
“I now glow deep carmine
something the color of roses
all beautiful petals protected by thorns:
a red queen emerging from a pink princess,” senior Amodhya Samarakoon said during her speech on Feb. 2.
Illustrations for seniors Hannah Stanley and Riley Bowman to come. Illustrations are published depending on how quickly senior submit their quote and illustration preferences.
