Robert Finch Speoks ot OSU GrciduotionCeremonies F Peace and sunny days made the 1970 graduation ceremonies memorable as well as momentous. On Thursday, June ll, senior veterinary students were sworn in by Dr. Clarence Cole, college dean, at ceremonies held in Sisson Hall. Distinguished service degrees were awarded and the guest speaker was M. L. Willen, D.V.M., Canton, past president of the Ohio chapter of AVMA. On June T2 with demonstrations unnoticeable except to the press and sunny but muggy weather, 4,000 OSU graduates heard retiring Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, Robert Finch, say among other things, No matter what we do, our waters and air will not be cleaned in a year or two-but they might be in ten, if we work at it. No matter what we do, we cannot establish racial iustice or redesign our society in a year or two-but I promise you, if you show staying power, 'you will change the face of American politics.' And eight honorary doctoral degrees were awarded outstanding persons in various pro- fessions including veterinarian Dr. Thomas Carlyle Jones, president of the International Academy of Pathology. On receipt of their diplomas and the sworn oath behind them, 77 veterinary graduates became full doctors. --.

Student Council This year's student council, contrary to past experience, was very active. For the first time, the student council made up the Dean's Advisory Committee. With the assistance of the advisor, Dr. Koestner, numerous recommendations were made: A new Coke machine for the Clinic, bulletin boards for Sisson and the Clinic, a study of the freshman curriculum, professionalism in the college amongst the faculty and students, a discussion of the new clinic, and the student's role members for '69-'7O.

We hope next year's student council can take up where this year's left off and continue to improve its function in the college.
