WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THE CLASS OF ’58? Whether you are graduating this year or not. the critical eye of industry and business will be focused on you as a future staff member prospect. It is perhaps important, therefore, that you ask whether you have equipped yourself to make your first step into the competive world. Throughout your school years you have developed an understanding of many academic subjects. Your graduation certificate is testimony in itself of this achieve¬ ment. Business and industry, of course, look beyond your diploma to determine if you possess many other important fundamental qualities. The most important of these will be your ability to assume responsibility, for management today requires young men and women, as never before, to give leadership in our modern day competitive economy. Your willingness to accept responsibility will be tested on many occasions. The degree of your future success will also be measured by this essential characteristic. A second important quality will be evaluated by your desire to further qualify yourself, regardless of whatever occupation you follow. The individual who stands still and is prepared just to exist from day to day without improving his or her knowledge of business or profession, immediately places limitations on their careers. Our country presents the most challenging opportunities of any nation in the world, for young men and women. Those who succeed are those who are prepared to set an objective — then apply themselves toward achieving it. I can remember once seeing a sign on a Northern Alberta road ,which read “Be careful which rut you choose, for you may be in it for the next fifty miles.” I would say to you young men and women — “Be careful of the life you chose, for it is yours to live for the next fifty years or more.” Choose to live a life without depth, breadth, and height, and it will simply be a blind experience. But make those decisions daily that give meaning and direction and you will find it a great adventure. It is all up to you. Good Luck. Arthur R. Smith M. P. May 22, 1958
