Dear Members of the Hamilton Community,

Hang in there right now. We are at that critical time when it seems as though there is so much to look forward to, yet so much left to accomplish. We hope everyone is able to find moments to enjoy themselves and take in all that is special about these last couple of weeks in the year.

As this is the final issue of

The Spectator

for the 2021–2022 academic year, we would like to take this opportunity to thank our extraordinary staff for their tireless efforts in ensuring that every voice within our community is heard and that every issue is carefully covered. In particular, we would like to offer our sincerest gratitude toward the seniors on our editorial board: Emma Mae Regan, Claire Goldstein, Catherine McFarland, Sam Dils, Katherine Kim, Duncan Freeman, Abbie Wolff and Mukund Jarayam. We are deeply appreciative of the impact that each of you has had on our community, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Finally, thank you to every Hamilton student, faculty member, employee, administrator, parent and alum who has supported us throughout this semester and throughout the year. It has been our privilege to share and spread the word on a spectacularly eventful year.

We hope you and your families have a wonderful summer, and we wish you all safe travels as you depart, some for the last time, from our tremendous community.

With many thanks,

Eric and Emma Mae
