THE PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE It is a pleasure to extend congratulations and every good wish to the Graduates of 1962. You are going out into a world which is changing rapidly. The rate of change during the last two or three decades is so great that I doubt it has ever been exceeded in world history. You will be gravely concerned with what is happening. Responsible, representative, parliamentary government is one of our great achievements. We fought two world wars to preserve it. But the percentage of the world ' s people who enjoy this type of government is smaller today than it ever was. The Christian religion gave to Western civilization a high regard for the value of the human individual; but Islam, which began 500 years later than Christianity, now has more adherents. The painstaking perseverance of our scientists has given us the best weapons to fight disease that we have ever known. At the same time, they have enabled us to stockpile enough atomic bombs to destroy life on earth. Our engineers, through automation, have made it possible to produce more goods with less human labour. At the same time, we are plagued by problems of unem- ployment. These are just a few of the many problems you will be concerned about. I mention them, not to discourage you, but to challenge you. Problems provide opportunities. The survival of our civilization will depend on how you, and others like you, take advantage of them. I would suggest that the only basis on which we can build a truly civilized and peaceful world is understanding. We must hold fast to that which is good in our tradition, but at the same time, we must be realistic in recognizing that there are other traditions at least as valid as ours, and we must make an effort at understanding them. Universal understanding requires universal education. A strong desire for education already exists in all young nations but the means are inadequate. There is a growing awareness of this fact and attempts are being made to help. Examples familiar to you are the African Students ' Foundation and the American Peace Corps. You as graduates are members of privileged groups of the world society. The education that you, and others like you, have received has equipped you to accept leadership and responsibility. It is my earnest hope that you are prepared to do this. We pass on to you our traditions with our problems. It is your task to relate our tradition to other traditions and to apply this knowledge to the problems we share in common.
