To ihe Class of 1946: Greetings: Your college career lias traverse ! the course of the war years. From the disturbed experiences of verdant freshmen to the anxious days of noble seniors you were called upon to weather the storm” in a variety of ways. Many of your comrades have been drawn away through this stretch of time, both by the call to military service, and by the greater attractiveness of other engagements. A few of you have fought through to the end and today stand on the verge of a new adventure. Today, as at no time during the last live years, the world presents to the college graduate both confusion and challenge. A considerable portion of vour answer to this condition is dependent upon the resources with which you are equipped as you take your next great step toward meeting I he world’s needs. It is my hope that in this process of arming you with the spiritual and intellectual weapons I hat will be required in the struggles now before you, your Alma Mater has nol been derelict in the fulfillment of its obligations. FRANK THKODORK WILSON Doan of Mon We are called upon in these days to reaffirm our sense of unity in bold and daring undertakings for the common good of mankind. Our contribution to the larger welfare of humanity will be measured in terms of the effectual use of our powers in that small segment of the world where each of us has the privi- lege of living and working. Let everyone then go forth to utilize his gifts of mind and body in that place to which opportunity and responsibility may assign him. And as we so work with the full release of all of our energies, may we be reminded continually that we are sustained by an ever-devoted circle of friendship and affection. Sincerely yours, Frank T. Wilson, Dean of Men. 13

JOS KIM I NKWTON HILL Dean af (hr College TO THE MKMHERS OF THE (Graduating Class of 1946: It is quite probable that if I have not made my thoughts clear to you, after a series of attempts covering a jieriod of four years, 1 shall hardly succeed now. It is true, however, that this message is not intended as a final thought, hut rather as a gesture of good will—a lion voyage.” liemember, then, the admonitions from Alina Mater; remember, too, the days of arduous work and of real enjoyment which were spent on the cam- pus. From such memories of work and play, take up the pattern of a balanced life and apply it to all I hat you do or say. You may even build an ennobling philosophy of life. The world has need of balanced men—men cognizant of the great society of their fellowmen throughout the world. I am counting on you, through under- standing, to help bring peace and progress to all mankind. Sincerely, J. Newton Hill Dean of the College. 12
