Letter from the I’riiieipal Mr. Caswell E. MacGregor Dear Clas of 1964: You are leaving your school to move out into a world where the answers to what is right and good and enduring are distorted by the emotions erupting from the almost universal struggle for recognition racially, economically, and socially. The threat to your future lies in being a half believer. There is nothing more hope¬ less than being half sure. As individuals who believe in Democracy and Christianity you must, if your lives are to be significant and satisfying, base your judgments on the fun¬ damental principles of human conduct by which men determine what is good and what is evil. You must share strong convictions and abide by them, for no man can serve two masters. Again and again you will be tempted to play safe and straddle the difficult issues. It is our hope that your years at Girard have developed in you the intelligence and the courage to say, This l do believe; this l will live by at any cost.” To the extent that you adhere to these principles ivill you lead com¬ petent and honorable lives. To the extent you ignore these beliefs will you lose your honor. We shall miss you. We shall pray that you go forth to make the good name of Girard better by your actions and accomplishments. Sincerely, WaStrtv ft. . ((ac ' fjteao 8 )
