We are told by those who have the figures in hand that there will be more graduating from colleges this year than in any previous year in the known history of the world. During the past five years the enrollment in colleges reached the peak. The demand is greater for college trained men and women this year than at any previous time. 2. We have the largest percentage of women in the senior classes this year in recorded history. In the year 1900 it was not thought highly important that women go to college. They were expected to marry and rear families. In fact, that was about the only occupation open to them. From the graduat- ing class of 1950 thousands of women will continue their studies toward advanced degrees. Many technicians will be trained. This is a part of the changing educational scene. 3. The year will see the best trained group that has ever gone from our colleges. They will face a world demanding a high degree of technical knowledge, a broader understanding of social problems, and a more tolerant attitude toward racial differences. 4. This year’s class will face a world conscious of the need for men and women of strong, well balanced characters. Did ever such a challenge face a generation of college graduates? The question which we of the Administration face is this: Has Trinity University made the contribution to your development that will equip you to take your places in the world as you find it? If so, we shall have fulfilled the high- est mission of a Christian College. While we bid you adieu, we shall follow you with pride as you make your contribution to a world which seems to have lost direction in so many ways.
