SHEAR “Congratulations upon the successful completion of the rigorous training pro- gram of the United States Merchant Marine Academy. In meeting the challenges of Kings Point, you have developed skills and attributes that will serve you well throughout your lives. Other challenges lay ahead, however. Some will be personal, as you strive to reach your individual goals. Others are shared by all of us who are con- cerned about the future of America’s maritime industry, not just for our own sakes but for the well-being of the Na- tion. I am proud to be working with Presi- dent Reagan to upgrade the American Merchant Marine. We have been plot- ting a new course toward a long sought- after goal, that of a merchant fleet com- mensurate with America’s status as the world’s leading trading partner and de- fender of democracy. I am proud, too, of young men and women. I urge you to remember that along with the challenges, there are op- portunities. Because of your training and your proven capabilities, you are well prepared to meet them.’’ Faculty And Administration 21
