To the Student Body of the Provincial Institute of Technology and Art Recent years have witnessed a great upsurge of interest in vocational and technical training in this country and elsewhere. This reflects the rapid industrialization of our economy, the greater use of new machines, the development of the wizardry of electronics, and the creation of a host of new forms of equipment. The students of a school such as the Institute are in the midst of this transformation and by their presence indicate that they have an awareness not only of their personal need to be fitted for skilled employment, but of the need of their country for persons trained to meet the challenges of change and expansion. The Department of Education is proud of the Institute and of the contribution it makes to the welfare of all. Since this contribu¬ tion is actually made through the students who receive their training there it follows that we are proud of its students and graduates. To those who are about to complete their courses and enter into their life work we extend greetings and best wishes, with every confidence that they, as their predecessors have done, will bring credit to the Institute and to the Province of Alberta. Yours sincerely.
