Senior girls joined alumnae from St. Helen's Hall for the Old Girl–New Girl Tea and Memorabilia on February 10 at Trinity Cathedral. From 1869 to 1972, OES was an all-girls school called St. Helen's Hall, and it was a tradition at The Hall for senior girls to welcome the freshmen with an Old Girl–New Girl Tea every year. This event was a revival of that tradition with a new twist and was enthusiastically embraced by both alumnae and current students. (L to R) Lia D. '08, Evelyn Zentbauer Lundgren '32, Natasha M. '08.
