William Jesse Baird, From The President 8'5 Ms LLB' Your Alma Mater graduates you in the high hope that you will strive to make the world of tomorrow a better world. ln college you have learned the value of freedom, but you have also learned that there is no true freedom attained without rigorous discipline and definite individual responsibility. You have learned there is no grecxt achievement without great labor. As college men and women, most of you will be serving on the home fronts. On whatever front you may be-home, school, government, industry, farm, church-you will be standing for what is right, and not for what is merely expedient. As true sons and daughters of your Alma Mater, you will prove yourselves ambassadors of good will, and serving as creative and productive citizens. In college you have had opportunities beyond the average American citizen. To you, much has been given and from you, much may be right- fully expected. As you take your places on the various fronts, you will know that you do not stand there alone. You may draw upon the strength of that goodly company of college men and women who are working to make Q life richer for an ever increasing number of people. Too, your Alma Mater will follow you with admiration, hope, love, and high expectations. Wm. Jesse Baird
