Standards We Maintain GERALD D. TIMMONS Dean TO THE CLASS OF 1950: Nineteen Hundred and Fifty!!! What a flood of thoughts those figures bring forth and how much meaning they can have for you if you will but pause and reflect on their meaning. They mean the end of the first half of the twentieth century and to Dentistry that is a very significant period. At the beginning of the cen-tury Dentistry was struggling for recognition. It was then but a mechanical art. The training re' quired was minimal, at that time it was only necessary to have one year of high school educa-tion before one could embark on a three year training in the profession. Think what that training could include and then compare it with the training you have received. Does it not immediately point out the fact that Dentistry has changed from a mechanical to a bio-mechanical profession? Does not the training you have received make you truly a guardian of the health of the people and should you not accept this as your major responsibility? We still sec around us some of those men who graduated fifty years ago. Ponder on their thoughts as they view the transition which has occurred and then pause to consider how much many of them have contributed to the progress of the profession. Many of you who graduate in 1950 arc old beyond your years because you participated in the gigantic struggle between Nations. You helped to preserve a way of life without which there would be little reason to live. In making the contributions and sacrifices you have made, you have earned your right as citizens in a free country. Guard well those rights, help protect them for those who are to follow you. Let me charge you now to so pattern your professional life that when the next fifty years have passed those who are to come may point with pride to the service you will have rendered not only to your profession but to your fellow men. Sincerely, GERALD D. TIMMONS, dean ll
