PHARMAKON Bean’s jlessage To the members of the Class of 1950 who represent the largest class to be graduated from the Albany College of Pharmacy since the four year program was inaugurated, may I express the heartiest congratulations of the Faculty and Board of Trustees. Wc are justly proud of you and welcome you to our ever increasing group of alumni. We hope that you will consider the degree conferred upon you at your Commencement exercises as your certificate of entrance to a body of professional men and women inculcated with the fundamental principles of serving and understanding their fellow men in the universal quest for better health. The four years you have spent in college have prepared you for the lifetime of study which you must be prepared to undertake if you are to maintain the high standards set by the ever increasing advances in the field of pharmacology. Everyone of you needs to join and to participate actively in your local and state pharmaceutical association and above all in that great national scientific body The American Pharmaceutical Association whose journals supply a substantial part of the source material so necessary for the continuation of your education. May I finally express the hope that you will here and now resolve to make at least one annual visit to your alma mater and to call upon her at any time for any help she may be able to render for your better and more serviceable pro- fessional life. Dean Francis J. O’Brien, ’20 Eleven
