        Started with this class, left before 1971

        19 · not at the school in 1971

        Printed as freshmen, sophomores or juniors of the Class of 1971 in the books before 1971, then not in 1971 at all — they left before their senior year, or finished school somewhere else. Each card says the last year they were printed; the face is the one beside their name.
