Alice Billings Browne, in a speech about the class in 1970, said: The class contains "no world famous alumnae, but a noteworthy record of honors achieved, successful careers, happy marriages, and a general disposition to care about our neighbors, our country ... and a dedication to work for peace and goodwill."
