ffiff mm D QR if LT' '- DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY HALIFAX,N S, B3H 4H6 s cs TO THE CLASS OF 1980 As I shall be giving you the Presidency of Dalhousie University a few months after you graduate, it occurred to me to look up the 1937 PHAROS to see what was said forty-two years ago when I left Dalhousie as a student, after having acquired my second Bachelor's degree. In a message to the graduates in Arts and Science Dr. C.B. Nickerson included the following words, which I think are still appropriate forty-two years later: HReal education can result only from a post- graduate course in life. We have endeavoured to supply you with the equipment which should make that course relatively easy: easier for you than for the less fortunate ones who have not enjoyed your advantages.n Perhaps I have not taken much time to philosophize in the past seventeen years that I have been President. With the strong support of the Board of Governors, chaired by Dr. Donald Mclnnes-for the whole of this period up to April 30th of this year, and with the co-operations from alumni, business, government, and friends of Dalhousie, my efforts have been primarily directed to improving our teaching and research staff, and providing the physical facilities to enable a good university education to be secured by an additional five thousand students. This amounts to an increse of about 200 percent during the years of my Presidency. I believe we have been successful in maintaining the. quality of our staff and our physical facilities. In leaving Dalhousie to begin your Hpostgraduate work in life? I hope you will remember that the vision and sacrifice of many people, including your parents, has given you the uequipmentn for a good start. Yours sincerely, I .f sf' X ..- if , , I 'I ! I
