Hameraj's Story
Hey everyone who went to Ferris! just the best high school ever!
To those who graduated in 1981, how are you?

So maybe you don't remember me, if I say wassup, perhaps we had a conversation and I thought you were nice. Maybe we sat next to each other in gym and I know your name and face. It could be, you were a friend of my friends. All that counts to me is that you went to Ferris. We can all wave our green and gold banners, we all can cheer loudly for the same team.

I would go back and change that last part...if I could...and ask that girl out.
What would you do if you could change one thing about your senior year?
