CARL J. REES, Provost JOHN A. PERKINS, President College yearbooks traditionally wish students well and remind them of special opportunities awaiting upon graduation. I do wish you all well! Further, a very spacial opportunity does exist for the Class of 958. This opportunity is not so closely related to the plentitude of jobs and the naticnal well being as college students often believe. Admittedly, young pecple graduating from college in pericds of prosperity have made laudable personal advancement: and outstanding contributions to the nation. On the other hand, some, equally gifted, graduating at the same time, have accomplished little. We must also recognize that graduates during periods of war, depression and uncertainty have overcome adverse conditions to achieve much, The special cpportunity would call to your attention lies within you. It is the ckills and knowledge, character and self-direction you have acquired during your four undergraduate years. What you make of yourselves will depend upon your further effort. In short, it is not the times that matter it is you, 13
