PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE This is the time of year when yearbooks emerge from tlie cocoons that have been so lovingly nourished by the students of the senior class, and the President of the University is expected to add liis food-for-thought. This I do gladly for the graduating class at Santa Barbara College. The bachelor ' s degree from the University of California represents a distinct honor, not alone because it is proof of long hours of study through many years, but also because it is proof that the holder iias measured up to high academic standards. Life does not end with Commencement, however, and the degree therefore means also that each recipient, in effect, has promised to continue his learning throughout the remainder of his adult life. To some people this conception of the educated man or woman as being the adult who con- tinues his education to the day he dies is difficult to grasp, in part, because because they can liardly think of tlieniselves as continuing to learn when there are no rules to force them to learn; in part, because they liave always thought of learning as something to be done on-the- job, rather than as something to be accomplished in-addition-to-the-job. However, unless the requirements and responsibilities of the diploma displayed upon the wall impinge upon the mind, it will not be worth the paper it it printed on, for knowledge quickly loses its savor if it is not constantly created and re-processed. This is why the University of California believes it has a continuing responsibility to be of assistance after Commencement in your intellectual growth and the intellectual growth of your community. This is why, through University Extension and otlier agencies, it seeks to make its resources continuously available especially to those who have earned the degree that is the seal of its approval. Craihiation from the University does not mean tliat we have bid you farewell. Rather, it means that you lia e assumed a new position in the University family. While you can no longer be held to any re(|uirements, and what you achieve hereafter will necessarily be a result, in largest pari, of your own initiative and industry, nevertheless the Univ-ersity will always be held in part responsible for your success or failure, and for its sake as well as yours will always be available for wiiatever assistance it can grant you.
