President's Message 1969 In the conclitionr of nzorlern life, the rule ir !lb.Y0llIl6?.' the rare which floex not znzlne trained intel- ligence if doomed. Not all your heroirm, not all your rotirzl rhnrnz, not all yom' wil, no! all your 'uirlorier on land or rea, mn move hack the finger of fare. Today we nminfain ozzrrelver. Tomorrow science will have mover! forward yer one more xtep, and there will he no appeal from the jznlgmenl which will he pfonolznrecl on lhe uneducaterl. Alfred North Whitehead It has been said, and it may be true, that man is so overwhelmed by the complexities of the world, which he himself has helped to make, that he is no longer able to govern himself-nor by extension his country and his world. If this is so, it is a universal mandate to educators and parents at all levels so to equip future citizens of the world that they may cope adequately and responsibly not only with constantly changing scientific concepts, but also with the interrelationships of peoples and nations, in a shifting present and in a future so fluid that it is dimly understood by all but a few. Some steps are already under way both here and overseas, and we in this country must accept our share of the task in increasing range. But it is not only upon educators and parents that the burden fallsg there must also be an effort on a people-to-people basis-and this means you and me, here and now-if worldwide understanding is to be reached. This era is, I believe, the last one in which we will have any real opportunity as individuals to bridge the gaps of misunderstanding and suspicion, and breach the walls of prejudice and hatred. We must come out of our shells, uncertain perhaps in the unfamiliar light of other nations, and listen to voices other than our own-in short we must become involved in mankind. It seems to me that we cannot escape this involvement, because in this shrinking world our personal lives are colored directly or indirectly by what happens in all parts of the earth. We therefore have a real and personal stake in world affairs and how they are conducted. If government appears to us to have grown into a vastly complicated behemoth of impersonal ma- chinery, controlled by men whose ideologies are contradictory and sometimes in philosophical disarray, this is all the more reason why our own minds must be open and our vision clear in order to sift out truth and principle from the myriad and conflicting doctrines which exist today. It is a formidable challenge which faces us-educators, statesmen, scientists, philosophers, and you and me alike. We have gone well beyond the point of an education which consists only of being a re- pository of facts, relegating us to mere encyclopedic devices: education must increasingly be a process of teaching how to learn, of developing intellectual curiosity and the tools with which to satisfy it, and a sharpening of a sense of ethics. Life is a continuation of learning, and I urge you to let younlearning encompass the whole spectrum of humanity without bigotry or fear fwhich is the mother of bigotryj. One need not agree with ideologies which-wherever they exist-deny the rights and dignity of mang but one must equally remember that each culture and tradition is due acceptance and respect until such time as it tries by force to impose its way of life upon others. It is necessary, then, in order to help shape the future, that each one of us make our voices heard, and these voices be informed and clear. To fail to do so is to abdicate the right of every human being to have a say in the direction of his world, and an admission that he is willing to let someone else make the decisions without lifting a finger to exercise his right of dissent. You are the generation of the future, now leaving the academic arena and entering the field of action. May your hearts be compassionateg may you have the moral strength to use with wisdom what you have lealgnedg and may you have the courage to speak out with vigor and eloquence for what you believe is rig t. Best wishes for success in all your efforts.
