Your forensics record this year is awesome again. What a remarkable staff and talented array of students!
I thought that the achievements of my friends and Prof. Evan Anderson of the 1930s might never be matched, but you incredible people seem to do it en masse.
Your achievements are a spectacular reminder of the quality of teaching and learning at Gustavus today.
