DR. CARL I welcome the opportunity through the pages of Northeastern Nights to congratu- late the students of the School of Business, and the Senior Class in particular, as another college year draws to a close. You have the advantage of being able to equip yourselves for life through the process of education. You who are being graduated will continue to learn, of course, but you have reached a definite milestone in your educa- tional career. Your mental fiber has been strengthened, hardened, and toughened by your study here at Northeastern. You have problems; the members of every graduating class have faced them. They are the natural accompaniment of being alive. You come to Northeastern to learn how to meet and to solve problems, not how to avoid them. The solving of them is the process that gives sparkle and zest to life. As college men and women, you are expected to be constructive thinkers and workers in your fields of specialization and in your communities. The privilege of obtain- S. ELL ing a college education carries with it the responsibility of being a good citizen. Northeastern University has grown even during your college career. It has increased and refined its programs, enlarged its physical properties, and become more effective in the field of education. However, Northeastern can never be more progressive than the fore- sight of its Corporation; never more brilliant than the teaching and research of its faculty; never more comprehensive or penetrating in its programs than the capacity of its students to understand and to master; never higher in public esteem than the accomplishments of its alumni. I am confident that Northeastern will con- tinue to meet the needs of the times and to be an ever-increasing power for good. I am also confident that the graduates of the School of Business through their achievements will add honor and strength to the University. CARL S. ELL, President Northeastern University [4]

ALBERT E, EVERETT THIS, I BELIEVE — What a challenging statement — and how provocative when it is posed to each one of us personally as a question. How stimulating it is to listen weekly on this radio program to the beliefs of men who have made significant contributions to our society. As you listen, isn ' t there a ten- dency for your thoughts to turn inward with the question, I wonder what I would say if similarly called upon? Every man at some time in his life wrestles within himself for an answer toward the formation of a credo for his life in which he endeavors to relate himself to the Eternal and through the Eternal to his fellow man. His subsequent ability to express in action those things which he inwardly believes to be true measures the degree of his success to live in harmony with himself, in contrast, mediocrity is symbolized by a confusion or lack of belief, while failure to respond to one ' s inner judg- ments results in frustration and unrest. The transition we are witnessing in our Western civilization is an example on a uni- versal scale of the inviolate nature of truth. It represents the failure of man to face up squarely to his true relationship to his fellow man, for people do not attempt to escape from something that does not exist or with which they have lived in harmony. The current social revolution cannot be stopped by force of arms but by convictions in the hearts of men based upon true beliefs. As a result of several years of close working relationships with evening school students, this, I believe about you. Even though in terms of your life span your stay at Northeastern has been short, I believe that there is a serious purpose motivating your actions; that you recognize the basic precepts for a useful life and unconsciously, at least, have made a start toward a clarification of your credo; that now, possessing through education the basic tools for your professional career, you will use them wisely as a good citizen, bringing honor upon yourself and your alma ' mater; that you will find true happiness by expressing your beliefs through your actions and in some measure — large or small — will contribute to the general welfare of mankind. ALBERT E. EVERETT, School of Business Dean [5]
