TO RICE 1928 For nearly four years you have been living in this institution under a triple imperative to govern yourselves, to educate your- selves, and to work out your own salvation. It has been a gay if arduous adventure in an austere but joyful faith. The advance- ment you have made towards usefulness to human society is gratifying alike to your families and to the life-long friends you have made here. Few of you, if any, will ever again have such years of plenty of time and opportunity for study and research. To most of you, earning a livelihood now assumes first impor- tance and takes precedence over leisure for learning. Yet I should like to think that every one of you will turn from time to time to scholarly interests, for next to the resources of religion, I know of no retreat from the wear of work quite so restoring as some corner of knowledge that you may call your own in history, philosophy, literature, science, or art. These spiritual disciplines make men and nations great and free. Our devotion to them is the true measure of our own civi- lization. They alone can justify its freedom, its gold, its speed, its hope. Only they can vindicate its ideal, whether ethical, so- cial, and popular, or aesthetical, individual, and personal. They alone can evaluate its principles, integrate its processes, esti- mate its progress, vitality, and culture. Whatever their verdict respecting current civilization, the significant thing for us at the moment is that these spiritual disciplines — letters andhis- tory, science and philosophy, religion and art — are informing and animating our material prosperity with increasing power to do good, to seek beauty, to know truth. A considerable measure of such threefold power this place has offered you. We who keep the place confidently expect you to make good use of the power. iJ4s4 Jii4 ilMJd
