THE FUTURE: ' A PRODUCT OE THE DREAMS AND HOPES WE CHERISH TODAY Menlo School of Business Administration 1975-1976 I A commentary: by Ted Hicks As I first began to formulate and kick ideas about in my head for this editorial, I arrived at a decision that, I sincerely hope, you will find refreshing at the very least. lt appears to be an erroneously assumed tradition of sorts, that all editorials be written in a manner not unlike that of every other yearbook from years past. It is in defiance of that tradition, as it were, and be- cause I feel as though the editorial space can be better utilized, that I have elected to forego the traditionalistic approach in hopes of delving into some more crucial aspects of both our personal futures and the ever increasing dilemma of our future as a world of individuals and groups . Relax now, and we shall scrutinize and probe that facet of the future currently available for inspection . Look around you, gaze beyond the mighty fortresses, the wombs of individual existances that either you, or those around you, have unwittingly created to defend the sanctity and simplicity ofa world in which nearly every person in concerned with the well-being of themselves alone. , A world where success is measured in dollars and diamonds, and the concept of an alliance, a bond amongst all peoples, has been misconstrued and warped to include only those persons whose political, economic, or religious convictions are synonymous to, or compatible with the convictions and values that you maintain to guide your own life . Surely, even those with the blurriestof vision can see quite clearly that it will be impossible to attain an all encompassing state of balance and equalibrium until the time comes when we finally direct our efforts towards our reunification and the construction of an alliance upon which all individuals may depend . As you begin to examine and explore this newly unveiled world, the great globe that lies beyond the boundries of isolation we impose upon ourselves, it becomes alarmingly apparent, almost immediately, that the seemingly endless serenity we strive to find for ourselves, and to some degree are able to create by spinning our own cocoons of separateness, is a dream that very few individuals can ever even begin to conceive in a world so vastly complex. The countless problems, both economic and social, that continually plague thisimmense sphere, are so finely interwoven, and so delicately balanced upon each other that it surely appears to be a frustrating, more aptly, nearly impossible task to begin the unbuilding of such a labyrinth of problems. But wait. . .don't begin the retreat back into your shell quite yet! Recall, if you will, that I said it was a nearly impossible task, not an impossible one. Undoubtedly, if it was in fact the human race that brought about this myriad of social and economic illnesses we are presently faced with, and it most assuredly was, then the remedy and eventual cure must also be within the vast realm of lVlankind's rather remarkable capaiblities and talents . Tis true, I'm afraid, that the evolution that brought about this monsterous predicament we are presently confronted with was a far sight
