SEHIUR CHP and GUUIH UH!! SPEECH E, the graduating class of '48, with the hesitation of the untried, accept these academic caps and gowns as symbols of the four years we have spent here in preparation for teaching. We accept them, also, as symbolic of our whole- hearted willingness to teach. But we cannot, yet, accept them as symbols of our teaching ability. The new generation will serve as either proud or poor testimony to our teaching ability. The new generation will be much more accurate a judge than anything that could be summoned here to judge us today. Those who take an interest in our college always hold out the hope that the members of each graduating class will turn out to be thinking-doers. We cannot assure you of that dream but we can, with much' certainty, assure you that the principles and methods to which we have been conditioned here will be govern- ing factors in most of the responses that we shall make to the stimuli of life. With trust in the system that has been our master in our bachelor days and with faith in the ideals that carry us upward and on, we hope to be, not only, thinking educated people, but also, active educators.
