To the Graduates and Students of De Paul: As the University approaches the end of its first half-century, We can look back on the milestone commemorated in this volume with humble thanks to God for our continuing suc- cess and with renewed dedication to our task of educating the Whole person -- spiritually, intellectually, morally, physically - so that our men and Women may contribute something of their integrated personalities to the community of Chicago and to the far reaches of this be- loved country. Our ll,6U0 students who make up the col- leges and divisions constitute a body of men and Women of diverse racial antecedents and varying economic strata, Protestants and Iews share With the predominantly Catholic enroll- ment a rich religious heritage and a discipline Which places first things first - fidelity to God, the moral order established by Him, and un- swerving loyalty to our country and its demo- cratic institutions. Scholarships being awarded by Father O'Malley. The problems facing society today de- mand clear thinking, correct perspective, and courageous action. The solution to these prob- lems must be founded, not on the principles of expediency or opportunism, but rather on the historic truths which serve as the foundation of our Western civilization - the all-pervading place God has in the economy of human affairs, the inviolable dignity of every human being because of his relationship to God, the rights of all peoples, irrespective of social or economic position, because of their membership in the God-created human family. To the teaching of these truths the Univer- sity is irrevocably committed May the lives of its students and graduates be Witness to their effectiveness in restoring to society prin- ciples of order and justice and love.
