HORACE MANN BOND, Ph.D. President of the University To the Class of 1949: You graduate in one of Lincoln University's most historical years. You are the first full post'World War II class; the 95th anniversary class, from the founding; the 90th anniversary class of the first graduates. In five years you can return to celebrate your first reunion at the time of your Alma Mater's Centennial celebration. It is good to honor historical memories, and to commemorate the great deeds of those who have gone before. It is better to make history in your own right. It is better, to use the stimulating inspiration of the past as a starting point from which to reach new individual and insti- tutional goals of achievement. It is then my hope that the Class of 1949 will be a history'making class for Lincoln University. Undoubtedly many of its members will be distinguished individually at home and abroad for their achievements. It is my deeper hope that beyond public acclaim, the members of the class of 1949 will be distinguished by that heroic personal satisfaction that comes to men who with disciplined minds and character, do the job the world gives them to do; and do it with simplicity, with integrity, with good spirits, and with concern for their fellow man. It is not improbable that the next 95 years of human history will mark a change in the tokens of individual success. It has been, pelf and profit; it may well become, unselfish service to the State and to the Human Race. If this is so, this University was founded on the foundation of ideals beyond its times; and we come only now to the chronological period in which the institutional ideal promises to be the social and national and world goal. It is for such a world that we yearn; it is such a world that you can help build. May the class of 1949 be truly the architects of a world where distinction rests with those who serve humanity, and not themselves! Sincerely,
