Letters from tke Editors

Hello, my name is Xochil Canto and I
am a freshman at the Mount but most
significantly, I enjoy working on yearbook
and exploring my creative side. As a
representative of the Mount's Yearbook for
08' -09', I'm grateful to have worked as Co-
Editor, and staff member with all freshmen
ladies who were dedicated, talented, and
motivated to make this yearbook great. Our
ambition to make a great yearbook was
carried out with immense team effort,
creativity, and responsibility by all
yearbook staff. As we look back to this year
we will be able to remember the highlights
of the Mount, captured for all to cherish.
Thank You.

Hi!
I'm Lizbeth Hernandez and I'm a freshman.
Being a Co- Editor for the yearbook as a
freshman has been one of the best experience,
because I have been able to experience first
hand how amazing the Mount is. MSMC is such
a tight knit community and being so, that has
given me the opportunity to build a mini family
as I embark on this journey. I have been able to
see and experience the many opportunities that
Mount provides for its students, which makes
me iiber happy, since college is one of the most
exciting journeys we will ever embark on.
Taking part and having the opportunity to
capture those memories for you makes me really
happy. I hope you enjoy reminiscing on the past,
as much as the staff and I have enjoyed
providing them for you.

Congratulations, graduate. May your new patk

GREAT EIGHT

American swimmer Michael
Phelps made history at the
Summer Olympics in Beijing,
China, by becoming the
first athlete ever to win
eight gold medals at one
Olympics. During his breath-
taking week in the pool,
seven of Phelps' eight victories
were new world records.

A MORE URGENT NEED

Rising oil prices and continued climate change:
made the search for alternative, renewable source;
of energy a more prevalent topic of discussion
Solutions like wind farms, using large turbines
became more common.

HISTORIC ELECTION

Barack Obama was elected the 44th U.S. president,
becoming the first African-American person to lead the
nation. A record 127 million votes were cast, with about
31.7 million voting early for the first time in 30 states.
This also was the longest presidential campaign season
ever -21 months.

WHO ARE YOU?

The fight against insurgents continued in Iraq and Afghanistan. Deployment of American troops
meant tearful farewells and joyful homecomings. Sometimes, servicemen returned to meet new
family members.
