DR. GLENN OLDS President TO THE CLASS OF 1959 There is something prophetic in the name, Massasoit, friend of pilgrims. For, in a very special sense, the mission of the college, and its deeper mood as we see you leave, is to be a friend to pilgrims, and that you are. Pilgrims are those on a sacred journey, travelers headed for a high and holy destiny. The college is neither home or destination, but friend and servant of your pilgrimage, proud as was Massasoit that first Thanksgiving Day in 1621 to share in the celebration of yet another milestone on your journey. The world has never been easy on Pilgrims. It prefers the settled, secure, and harm- less stay-at-home, who knows no discontent of dedication, or passion for pilgrimage. It would domesticate you if it could to the near, the mundane, the mediocre. It would steri- lize a sense of sacred mission in you, and adjusting your journey to the well beaten path of the near and familiar, the region of home. But you have chosen the path of pilgrim. This is your Springfield heritage, an educa- tion for service, a long journey of dedication; and you may not get home before dark. Still, you carry your light with you — within you, fed by the gentle flame of all your memories of mite and mighty moments here. And we go with you, in silent shadows as an Indian friend — of pilgrims. In President Doggett's favorite Gaelic blessing, May the roads rise with you. And the wind be always at your back; And may the Lord hold you in the hollow of His hand. DR. GLENN A. OLDS 10
