C. MAURICE GRAY Tremendous strides .have been made in the past ten years in tech- nical, mechanical, industrial, and scientific areas. Progress is so fast that placing men on the moon may be superfluous because machines may be able to accomplish as much or more. Education has made many successful adjustments in this era and needs to make no apologies. In the years ahead we may predict that educational progress and responsibilities will not be found wanting. While this has been taking place a tremendous void has appeared in the whole complex area of human relations. One wonders if perhaps steps backward have not been taken rather than positive accomplish- ments achieved. We are at the stage where everyone seems to know something about human psychology which is also the point where a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Our biggest problems to- day, and for the indefinite future, are in that vast area of human communications and human relationships. These must be solved if we are to survive and if we wish to enjoy the products of technical skills. Salaries paid in these fields will not be commensurate with those in space or computer vocations. Other compensations of work- ing in this vital area plus the knowledge that one is helping to save the human race must attract young people of great ability. May you as graduates of the Class of 1968 accept the challenge! MR. JOHN .l. CALLAGHAN All around us we see horrendous examples of manis inhumanity to man. While at the same time, we have evidences everywhere of the tremendous advances in science and technology, especially during this century. Would that in the century to come we could advance on a par in the social sciences-the humanities. This, no doubt, would mean changes in the institutions established for the general welfare. Since institutions can both help and hinder us, in attaining our purposes in life, change is inevitable. For as Jefferson has said, to expect institutions to remain unchanged is like asking a man to wear the same suit he wore as a boy. If man is to endure it would seem that it is high time for him to exemplify man's humanity to man. One way for him to do this is to seek the desired changes through the democratic process. And it is our job--yours and mine-to make the democratic process work.
