JOHN A. PERKINS PRESIDENT Mever has a graduating class entered a more exciting and challenging world. The second half of the 20th Century holds more promise of wonders and fulfillment than any like pericd in modern history. Yet, during your under- graduste years at the University of Delaware there has been much talk of calamities the possibility of war and economic depression. Conceivably in the years before you these and other catasstrophies to which mankind is susceptible will not only threaten but may actuslly occur. Regardless of what lies ahead, you are richer for the education you have attained. Remember this: Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate, no despotism can enslave.
