The initial senior t-shirt selected by student council representatives in late October was denied by the Presentation administration on the basis that it was a copyright infringement and “innuendo.” As a result, a white tee featuring a “Thank You, Enjoy”-inspired design with the word “seniors” written in red capital letters, was chosen by student council as the senior t-shirt.
