From: American Heritage Dictionary
During our journey through college as often in life, we see many
signs. Although we take them for granted, these signs are reflections
of the world we live in. Permanently fixed to their surroundings, they
stand as reminders of times gone by. Each time we pass an old
familiar sign, we will remember the good times we spent in its
vicinity.
Try to recall the first time you saw a certain sign. Were you at a
new stage in life? Perhaps it was your first day at a new job, or at a
new school. Soon enough the sign grew to be familiar as you
became accustomed to your new surroundings. But, you knew that
this sign too would be replaced by signs a distance away.
Along these lines we have assembled signs of our college
experience, to keep and cherish the rest of our lives.
Look through the pages of this book. Each time the miles roll
away, you will see a limitless number of signs of 1984 and you’ll
remember the good times spent at NJIT.
