Asm i ' +- § UNIVERSITY » V ' irwliN COLNUNIVERSITY IBM • Office of the President TO Tli December 17, 1979 !•• 1980: Everything the child learns in school, he forgets—but the education remains. This French maxim, like most maxims, overstates the case. Still it contains immense truth, for even at Lincoln what you carry away in terms of your motivation, values, judgment, habits of thought, habits of work, knowledge, and humaneness are the essential outcomes of your years here to help you meet the problems of a world beset with daunting obligations. No doubt you may be slightly aghast over the seemingly stupid problems of this period: why can't we burn all the oil we can pay for; why can't we blow our weak little adversaries off the globe; why can we... We are rich, powerful, right. All of us find it difficult to accept that all affairs are no longer simple, that we must be mindful of the peoples all over the world, that perhaps the most challenging task of your generation will be how to bring the advantages of civilization to alljthe peoples over the earth without subjecting it to a nuclear holo- caust in the process. To achieve the last will require a triumph oft tenacity over adversity. Thi last theme, too, must be moved to the front. The potential of our science and technology is immense but not limitless. You must be especially sensitive to developments such as we are alreading expert encing: our right to privacy abraded by the computer, for example. And 'even more frightening encounters with the dehumanizing potential of technology are evident. aySwe hope for you a life of sincere, effective involvement, using your skills in the service of our society—a Lincoln tradition since 1854. Avoid the cosmetic, the selfish, the fanatic. Santayana defined a fana- tic as one who redoubles his efforts after he has lost sight of his goals. May your goals be clear and worthy. Very cordially yours, Herman R. President Branson HRB:vsg LINCOLN UNIVERSITY. PA. 19352 • 1215)932-8300
