Presidents Message I think it fair to say that never in human history has there been greater need than now for versatile men and women. We need, even though few of us will attain it, the capacity to combine within a single person the talents for more than one profession. We need in many people a virtuosity. such as we associate with the great figures of the Renaissance. Yet the prevailing pressures of our time drive us toward a specialization that is not compatible with breadth of concern and talent. I am convinced that we shall have to find in our century the means to reconcile specialization with sound liberal learning. Among the women of our society. specialization has come to mean above all else the fulfillment of their responsibilities to the family. I sincerely that the quality of the liberal learning at Mills, and the measure in which it is absorbed by those of you who are graduating, will enable you always to perform your specialized responsibilities without ever losing sight of the deeper and broader meanings of life-meanings which the College strives to bring within your view during the years you spend with us. I have such confidence in you and in the College that I believe this will happen. 55 ei, Charles Easton Rothwell
