As Luke quotes Jesus, Every one to whom much is given, of him will much be required and of him to whom men commit much they will demand the more. To the graduate of a Christian college much has been given — much committed. The challenge is clear — the responsibilities worthy of your best efforts — nothing less than your best. God will help — let Him. Sincerely, John A.
