Yet, in a sense, every graduate is comparable'to the pyramids, for into his education is poured the vast accumulation of knowledge, understanding, and skills developed since the beginning of man. But here the analogy ends. We stand no immobile in the sands of time, for we can create,build, and embellish the achievements of mankind, not for one age, but for all time.
