TO HAVE BLIND FAITH IN THE SYSTEM CAN BE WORSE THAN HAVING NO FAITH AT ALL. PERHAPS ONE CANNOT BE CONVINCED THAT FAITH CAN HAVE LOGIC BEHIND IT; PER HAPS ONE CAN. TO BELIEVE AND TO KNOW WHY ONE BELIEVES IS A GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT. FOR THEN ONE CAN GUIDE OTHERS TO HAVING A MORE MEANINGFUL BELIEF. IT IS DIFFICULT TO FIND SOMEONE WHO 8ELIEVES IN AMERICA. IN AMERICAN PEOPLE. IN AMERICAN STUDENTS. SOPHISTl CATION IS A BIG WORD. IT FITS FEW PEOPLE. MANY TRY TO BE SOPHISTICATED; FEW TRY TO BE THEMSELVES. MANY LIKE ONLY SOPHISTICATION; FEW ARE AFFECTED BY SINCERITY- OR THE LACK OF IT. MANY THINK THAT TO LEAD IS TO SET AN EXAMPLE-TO TRANSCEND THE COMMONPLACE-TO BE SOPHISTICATED. SOME THINK THAT TO LEAD IS TO BE SINCERE-COMMONPLACE. AWARE. SPIRIT. MIND. AND BODY-IS NOT A TRANSCENDING PHI- LOSOPHY. TO HAVE RATIONAL FAITH. TO UNDERSTAND THE COMMONPLACE. TO BE SINCERE-IS TO LEAD—IS TO GUIDE OTHERS TO A DEEPER FAITH. NOT ONLY IN THE SYSTEM. BUT IN THEMSELVES. HE WHO GUIDES THUS. IS WORTHY OF THE INTENTIONS OF THIS DEDICATION. THOMAS W. O'CONNOR HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE AS AN INSTRUCTOR IN POLITICAL SCI- ENCE SINCE 1966. EXPERIENCED IN BUSINESS AND POLITICS. MR. O'CONNOR RECEIVED HIS BACHELOR'S DEGREE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE IN 1963 AND A MASTER S DEGREE IN HISTORY FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTI CUT IN 1965. CHAIRMAN OF THE HISTORY DEPARTMENT. MR. O'CONNOR IS INSTRUCTOR OF COURSES IN AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. FOREIGN AFFAIRS. RUSSIAN HISTORY. AND POLITICAL SCIENCE SEMINAR. THOMAS O'CONNOR HAS ESTABLISHED A SENSITIVE PER SONAL RAPPORT WITH HIS STUDENTS. THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH HIM. AS A STUDENT OR AS A PER SONAL ACQUAINTANCE. ARE FORTUNATE. THEY KNOW AN IN- STRUCTOR WHO WOULD RATHER CONVERSE WITH A STUDENT FOR TWO HOURS IN THE DUGOUT THAN LECTURE BEFORE A CLASS OF TWO HUNDRED OR WITHDRAW BEHIND THE COMFORT AND SECURITY OF A CLOSED OFFICE DOOR. THEY KNOW A MAN THAT IS READILY AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS OF BEING. AT ONCE. A STUDENT AND A YOUNG ADULT. THOMAS O’CONNOR IS PERSONALLY INVOLVED WITH THE STUDENTS OF SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE. IN AN AGE OF MASS EDUCATION, COMPUTERIZED LEARNING AND PSEUDO SOPHISTICATION. HE HAS MAINTAINED THAT QUALITY WHICH YOUNG ADULTS RESPECT MOST. THOMAS W. O'CON- NOR BELIEVES IN HIS STUDENTS. FOR THIS WE PROUDLY DEDICATE THE 1968 MASSASOIT TO HIM. 6
