MARTIN I) J UN KINS President, Morgan Stair College ro I HE SENIORS OF 1962 Greetings: In the spirit of vour theme. ACCEP’I ING THE CH U.LKNGE OF Ot’R EVER CH N(. IN(; WORLD. I should like 10 paw two ideas on 10 you. The first i that no matter how much 01 how well you have learned, you must understand 'hai the formal schooling you have had i' not Wiflicictit. Tht. rapid changes occasioned by 'deuce and technology, by advances in tnmspop (ation and communication, and by the economic and cultural awakening of tlumbciing millions of )K.'oplc the world over make it itu| craiivc that you continue sour quest lor knowledge and un demanding Ireyottd the college years. f'hc second idea which I would convey is that by virtue of your level of education you are under an obligation to apply your own creative intclli- Renee to the problems of this dynamic society. If Voti leave the tasks of your times for somebody else . otir education has failed you. Vour educa- tion will only be effective to the extent that you become actively involved in structuring the world of tomorrow to the end that it may Ik a better place for you and your children. In the process, some of you will produce new books, original poetry, unique research ideas, no- table works of art and musical compositions, help ful ideas for the alleviation of pressing social prob- lems. Not all of your contributions will be start- ling. but each can be a contribution to the onward inarch of our culture. And each will Ik noted proudly by Alma Mater. I wish for each of you a successful life—not simply success to he counted in material gains, hut success in attaining worthwhile social and |K tv»nal goals. Cordially. k .
