He is firm but fair and his untiring effort toward developing a responsible, happy, and loyal student body, consistent with a greater Lowell Tech, has won our respect and admiration. We are pleased therefore to dedicate the 1963 Pickout to him.

PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE To The Graduating Class For more than sixty years, the Lowell Technological Institute has educated young people for useful careers in the fields of their choice. Through six de- cades the Alumni of Lowell have made their mark and have reflected great credit upon their Alma Mater. It is a matter of great pleasure for me to ob- serve that, from all indications, you, the members of the Class of 1963, will be no exception and will leave your laboratories and classrooms shortly to prove your worth in exemplary fashion. During your course of study at this Institute, you have witnessed far- reaching and dramatic changes — changes in the world at large as well as changes in the campus world of which you have been a part. Adjustment to the new mode is never easy, but you graduates of the Class of 1963 have served your apprenticeship and have been found worthy. You have learned to be adaptable, to be flexible, to be facile in accommodating your way of life to meet the vicissitudes of modern living. You have proved your mettle in adversity; thus, your college career has been not only a preparation for an economic livelihood but also the foundation for living a useful and happy life. I would hope that you might continue throughout your lives to be vitally concerned with intellectual adventures — that you would think, that you would read, so that your personality might be enriched and your philosophy of living enhanced. In the trying decades of mid-century in which we live, I am wholly optimistic that LTI ' s greatness is only beginning, as this institution continues to provide to thousands of young people such as you the key to successful and productive living toward a golden age. As you now join the ranks of LTI Alumni, you have the good wishes of all your professors and academic associates, as well as my own personal congratula- tions upon your attainments and my hopes for a future which will be both personally and professionally rewarding, and socially useful. vUaa u 0. £Cj « Page 3
