ADMINISTRATION pi g e fe! 3 E5 L y,,.A..,g av-fa An unknown Chinese poet in 500 BC wrote: If you are thinking a year ahead, sow seed. If you are thinking ten years ahead. plant a tree. If you are thinking one hundred years ahead, educate the people. Ne at the Mount have tried our best to do that. I think it important that you leave here with an understanding of the investment many people have made in you and in Mount Ivlachusett Conlnunity College: your professors, counselors, administrators and staff -- all have made a contribution to your arriving at This juncture. You will soon pass fran the relatively protected corridors of Mount Nachusett Cofmiunity College to other less protected worlds, and to new responsibilities. I want you to achieve good and hard and difficult and impossible things -- for your own good and personal satisfaction -- but also because you are graduates of Mount Hachusett Conmunity College. Robert Frost once defined education as something like being able to hang on until you have caught on, Each of you has hung on long enough to catch on. and catch your Associate degree in the process. Please accept my congratulations upon your success. Arthur F. Haley President Pres. Haley w.4 Dean Pennington Dean Moak Dean FOX

75? M Mafia! 1135's fudw. aaa Dun ol'Shld:nl Selviu: L. ' TELEPHONE' E32-6600 may io, 1984 Dear Graduates: Once again I say farewell to a fine group of young men and women who just two years ago enrolled at the Mount. I congratulate one and all and have fond memories of the past few years. You have ample reason to be proud of the fact that you survived and persevered on this step in life's plan, You are the nineteenth graduating class in the rather short twenty years of the history of the college. I frequently lament the fact that we are a two year institu- tion because one hardly gets to know you before you move along. In addition, so many of you are labeled non-traditional in our current jargon because you did not come to us directly from high school as was the case years ago. Now we have grandmothers, grandfathers, and numerous family members who have gone on to our Alumni ranks. I bid you Godspeed, with much pride, best wishes, and every confidence that you will make us all extremely proud of your achieve- ments and contributions to society. I hope that all will become active members of the Alumni Association and that our paths will cross frequently in the future. Come back often to see us.
