It is with peculiar gratification that I salute the Class of 1930, for you young men and women began your college careers when I assumed the presidency of Temple University. We began our labors together, you to fit yourselves for the exacting demands of your life work, and I, to carry on the uncompleted projects conceived by the founder. How far we have succeeded in our respective tasks time alone will tell. College, in one respect, is not unlike Life itself. You get out of it pro- portionately What you put into it. And year after year, as class after class departs, it has become clearly manifest, through the measure of success they have achieved, that Temple students have given of their best. You, who have been no less serious-minded than your predecessors, therefore, may expect to be equally rewarded. For four years We have been fellow-students . Your study has been concentrated upon the knowledge that Will equip you for lives of useful- ness , mine upon the intricate problems involved in the administration of a Greater Temple University. if Your college days are over. Mine, I trust, are just beginning. For all there are obstacles to be met, and when they arise I am sure all of us, because of Temple influence, Will have the courage to overcome them. It gives me great pleasure to congratulate the members of the 1930 Graduating Class. Sincerely, 1 President. 5 v 4 5 so - e c , - , X e i l ly 1 a Q -ag r Ab ,gi 5: ,, sl .QI 17 Ip.. I

I 1 1 I M, r f-41235 1 gl l 'I'O THE CLASS or 1930: I The college graduate has become an important factor in 5 i American social life. He brings the resources of a trained and r disciplined mind to the consideration of the dilficult problems of i H economic-s and politics. He introduces the technique of a scientific l Un method into the traditional, processes of business enterprise and industrial production. He shares the treasures of his historical y H studies with his new associates urging upon them the oft-forgotten i 1 'sl fact that human thought is a continuous development, and that i f l earlier records have a distinct and important bearing upon the move- , i 1 ments and aspirations of the present generation. He fosters his Q i ip l instinct for aesthetic appreciation implanted in him by four years of , - y college instruction, and endeavors to proclaim by dignified behavior pw E i , and gracious manners that art and letters can beautify the social i 1 - i scene as no other human creations can. y But intimate acquaintance with the past may, by a subtle para- A ' i dox, encourage Within him a suspicion that he differs in some respects Q Q if from his fellowmen that he possesses elements of superiority by virtue W A of the very adx antage he has enjoyed and that he may consequently .H , i - demand an attention and regard which ordinarily come after the most arduous efforts. It is Wise to offer a cautionary remark. Sound 'l y purposes and hard Work are the sole guaranties of professional or y business preferment. If college men and Women have learned the l i meaning of the one and the methods of the other they will find a 7 1 safe and satisfactory place in the great community of intelligent minds which control and guide the destinies of the modern state Sincerely Dean College of Lrberal Arts and Scwnces A I f l N y .f , in X v i l w f , x i . . . . . 5 Q ' it ily i ly A i s iii I 'XI 1 . . i W , u . .
