Unrelenting, the future invades the present at a mind-boggling rate. The future uses the process of change, both sociological and technological, to overwhelm us. Our ability to adapt to this rate of change will determine how fast and how far we are able to develop as a civilization. However, before we can adapt, and in turn cope with, change, we have to understand and anticipate it. As society advances, we reap the spoils of progress. Recent population increases, for example, have contributed directly to the creation of new crises, both soci- ological, pitting m2n against man, and ecological, pitting man against his environment. Yet, ironically, outstanding among our advances is the increase in and distribution of knowledge. The task ahead of us is in the application of this knowl- edge to control development, to benefit society. An inherent risk in dealing with technological development is the loss of individualism-the creation of a society of robots, guided by an authoritarian Big Brother, beckon- ing us to 1984. Yet, by protecting personal liberty, 1984 can always be years away. Though these concepts may seem alien to the daily routine at East, they deserve the attention of people our age as they do no one else’s. From here on out the world is ours; and its problems, though we did not create them, fall square- ly on our shoulders. lf we realize that we are our only hope, perhaps we can effect pos- tive change and shape a better world.
