The WrangLer Endorser of the Class of 2019 as the best class to walk the halls of Brophy Edition Roman Numeral Seventy
Real. Comfortable. News.
A “thank you” to Dean Higgins that is larger than a fist By: Nikolas Kirk ’19 To the Brophy faculty, staff, and administration: We would like to submit our application for best class to ever be at Brophy, and, yes, Mr. Middlemist ’87, we do have textual evidence for why the Class of 2019 is the best to ever walk these halls: no other Brophy class will have Mr. Pat Higgins ’19 as their graduating peer – he can be officially included in our collection of senior portraits as an authentic member of our cohort. Just think about it – we’re the last group of students to experience four consecutive years of the Higgins Doctrine (characterized by an aversion to logos and penchant for quirky, spontaneous trivia facts). It truly is the end of an era. If you don’t believe us, ask yourself this: Mr. Pidgeon ’08 has the height to match, but does he have the perfect posture? As part of this application, we’re also requesting you pass along our thanks to the man himself. To Mr. Higgins ’19, thank you. Thank you for teaching us to how stealthily evade a pursuer, for always being willing to split a Michael’s burrito 50/50, for showing us how to stand in unison once a year, for keeping our wardrobes safe from potential fashion infection, for asking if our JUGs were fair and “commensurate with the Student Handbook” (the answer is always “no”), and, of course, for working tirelessly to keep us safe every single day. Although some of us act like we have seen a ghost whenever you walk past, we promise it’s only because we actually saw the Ghost of JUGmas Past. In all seriousness, we want to express our appreciation for everything you’ve done for us, whether we know it now or not. It’ll be different with you no longer running ship, but we know you’ll make a wonderful teacher for the students who will eventually take over these halls. Please reach out with any other questions about our application. Sincerely, The Class of 2019
