©can’s iHcssagf To ihe class of 1957. may I express the congratulations of the faculty and the Hoard of Trustees on the happy occasion of your graduation. Most of you feel that it is the consummation of four years of hard study. In reality, however, it is far more than that. Your preparation began before you were born and has been nurtured by the experiences of every moment of your existence since then. The native intelligence with which you were endowed by your Creator, through the medium of your parents and the experiences of a favorable environment, provided a needed background for the four years you spent in college. These two factors, however, were not enough to insure your success. Without a determination to make good use of these two important factors, you could not have succeeded. You were a carefully selected group. Your intelligence level was above the average, you ranked high among your fellow preparatory students, and you had already demonstrated your ability in the fields of sciences and mathematics. Your first two years in college were a further test of your ability for profes- sional study. In those years, the basic sciences in Chemistry, biology and Physics, together with Mathematics including Calculus, and general educative subjects in English and Economics comprised the main part of your program. It was no easy task and there were those who would not make the necessary sacrifices to succeed. Your last two years were devoted primarily to professional study. Pharmacy, Pharmacology, Pharmacognosy, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, and Pharmaceutical Administration bulwarked by supporting courses in Biochemistry, Analytical Chem- istry, Physiology, and Bacteriology were the. final steps in your preparation for a career in Pharmacy or an allied field. It is our earnest hope that the attainment of a Bachelor of Science degree will not mark the cessation of your intellectual growth. As each step in your career this far has been only the means for further achievement, your Commencement should be the door to continued intellectual growth. Your formal education may end, hut close association with your fellow practitioners, your attention to the litera- ture, lectures, seminars, and other experiences available to all learned men and women can be the means for your continued growth. A satisfied and happy life in your profession will be your reward—and a final admonition—always remember that capable alert minds, able to distinguish the substantial things of life from the nonsensical, seldom require the use of tranquilizers!
