During your undergraduate days, young gentlemen of the Class of 1938, l do not doubt but that you have become extremely weary of two words, Duty and Responsibility. Rnd yet, while these words have been emphasized and re-emphasized since the English language first was spofzen, no more euphonic synonym has been devised for them and no principle of human behavior has been found worthy of sub- stitution for their inherent and sustaining worth. The truth is you go out from this institution as a bene- ficiary of your State, with countless hours of earnest endeavor instilled into your lives by a sincere fac- ulty. You should justify this expenditure of dollars and labor in your training. So then, bereft of other injunctions as direct and meaningful as these overworhed words, l admonish you to go forth from this college determined to maize your life aim and purpose consonant with your duty and your responsibility. ln all things, social, political, spiritual, you have enjoyed the fullest freedom of choice. These liberties were hewn out of chaos for you by your heroic and self-sacrificing forefathers. Your responsibility is to malze a lilze contribution to succeeding generations. You have been singularly favored. Your perform- ance in your chosen field must reflect favorably upon those institutions that have provided your train- ing. There is no such thing as an exhausted field of service or opportunity. flew frontiers are to be ex- plored in each field covered in the curricula of this College. l confidently loolz forward to finding, when you pass from this, the maytime of your lives to the December of your leadership, that representatives of the Class of 1938 have constantly exemplified such faithfulness to your duty and your responsibility that these words will have continued to remain that they now are, the sublimest words in the English language.

1 llill' , i b A it lll l W-A Dean F. C. Bolton, who had been Dean of the School of Engineering since 1922, ' was made Vice-President of the College this year. l'le has done much to aid the progress of 9. 8: fT'l., ond well deserved this newly created office. He still retains his position as Dean of the College. Dean Bolton says, ln college you have discovered something of your own mental aptitudes and have developed a purpose in life. One should always aim toward a def- inite career, but his objectives should be lzept sufficiently flexible so that they may be adapted to changing conditions and as dictated by a developing judgment. You have equipped yourself with some of the tools of your profession or vocation. These tools must be lzept up-to-date, some must be sharpened and reshaped, others discarded to be re- placed by those which will prove more effective in the light of man's increasing lanowledge. If you can correctly evaluate and develop your own ability, if you have learned enough of the machinery of society and of its history to apply your gifts effectively, and if you have the initiative to malze plans andthe courage to carry them out, success will be yours.
