PUBLISHED BYTHE GRADUATING CLASS

AL-HIKMA UNIVERSITY

BAGHDAD, IRAQ

DEDICATION

On the morning of September 26, 1956, Al-Hikma's first group of Freshmen assembled

in a classroom at Baghdad College in Sulaikh for their first lecture. The lecturer was a

man whom they and succeeding Al-Hikma students would come to know and love, Rev.

Joseph L. Ryan. S. J., Dean of the University.

Since that day, Al-Hikma has grown in many ways. The student bcdy is much larger;

there are many new faces among the faculty; and the University has moved from a build-

ing on the Baghdad College campus to its own spacious, well-equipped campus in Zafraniya.

In gratitude to the priest whose devoted and patient labor has contributed so much to

this growth of Al-Hikma, and to our own individual spiritual and intellectual growth, we,

the graduating class of 1962 take great pleasure in dedicating this yearbook to Fr. Ryan.

The Priceless Extra

of Experience

Think for a moment of the many choices

we make in life which are determined

by our confidence in somebody's expe-

rience.

Choice in important things, like selec-

ting a doctor, a lawyer, or a friendly

advisor. In less important things, like

having something repaired. In even

minor, everyday, personal problems,

where we want wise guidance.

So deeply ingrained is this basis for

choice in all our actions, it comes as no

surprise when so many experienced

travelers say that this is why, when they

fly overseas, they put their trust in Pan

American.

For Pan American is "The World's

Most Experienced Airline" — in years

of flying over the seven seas— in every

type of transport plane— in fine mecha-nics who maintain these planes— in pilots

and engineers who fly and navigate

them— in services to care for you before

you embark, while on your flight, andwhen you land. Ail under the high

discipline of U. S. flight standards.

A Pan American traveler is a confident

traveler, reposing his trust in these years

of experience in getting you from here

to there— comfortably, dependably,

serenely.

It's a great experience to fly ivith

experience on Pan American.
