TO THE GRADUATING CLASS The class of 1946 is the frrst group of seniors to graduate from Mills in five years whose Lantern Song has not been orchestrated for artillery and dive bombers. In view of the obviously fragile nature of the peace, too loud rejoicing may be a bit premature: media vita in morte siimus, or, as the village half-wit translated it, never expect to get out of this world alive. Nevertheless, most brothers, boy-friends and husbands are returning to home and mufti, and in this brutal twentieth century of ours, mere tempo- rary biological survival is a feat to be marked by festival. The temptation, at a time like this, to exhort you to go forth to build a better ' orld, a stable peace, is almost irresistible, but I will resist it. If an understanding of the gravity of the tasks which lie before us, and the im- portance of your own tiny personal contributions to their accomplishment has eluded you, your years at Mills hove brought you no profit. I hove great confidence, however, both in your present awareness and in your future deeds and influence. If you have truly become a daughter of Mills, you w ill have developed a liking for roses with thorns, and that taste will sustain you. As you leave this campus, indelibly marked as Mills women, you go as evangelists of the spirit of this college. In a quantitative world. Mills stresses quality; in an impersonal age. Mills treasures intimacy. This is our gospel, and you will find that it has a saving power. Lynn White, jr. MESSAGE
