President's Message GROVER C. BOWMAN Prefident TO THE CLASS OF 1950. You graduate in the year which marks the completion of one half of the twentieth century. You are now to become an active participant in the making of the second half of the most chaotic century of human history. By the good fortune of birth, you are citizens of the freest and most powerful nation on earth, and you have chosen for your life work the education of youth for citizenship in a free society. This is both a great privilege and a great responsibility. For this we hope the college has prepared you. You have learned the value of knowledge and understanding which lead to Truth. You have learned of childhood, and how children learn and grow. Above all, we trust you have attained a surer knowledge of yourself. Out of these possessions, may you, with optimistic spirit, join the great procession of teachers who, through all centuries, have brought light and given courage to humanity. Grover C. Bowman President 2
