Wolfe president ' s message Greetings to the Class of 1957 As the date iiears for your graduation from Bucknell University, I should like to extend to you my sincere congratulations and my warmest wishes for the future. Your four years on this campus have, I trust, given ()u an ap- preciation of the responsibilities that will be yours as mature citizens. For society will expect much from vou in the way of leadership in a world still desperately striving for freedom. May you find in our new role deep satisfaction in utilizing your talents and your energy to contribute to a happier life for your fellowmen. I hope that the education you have received here has given you a new understanding of yourself and of the moral and spiritual values so highly prized by men and women who are truly educated. I hope, too, that you are firmly resolved to make your education a continuing process. Oliver Wendell Holmes once remarked, Every now and then a man ' s mind is stretched by a new idea and never shrinks back to its former dimensions. May life provide for you a never-ending succession of new ideas so that you may continue to grow in wisdom and understanding. As you prepare to join the ranks of Bucknell ' s 17.000 alumni, your University extends its best wishes for a happy and successful life. MERLE M. ODGERS 20
