lln a September Evening Q 7 w...n. fm, Un a September eve. some ten, nine, eight, or less years ago, we were introduced to the Iivening School ol'1Xc't'o1lnts and lfinance here in Irvine .Xuditorium. That lirst meeting now seems so long ago, but as we look back and see all that has transpired in the last ten years and reali7e the erucial period the world has just passed through, we are able to better understand the hardship ol' obtaining an education in the evening during such a period. Our goal then did not appear as something bright, and rosy on the hori- zon. XVC saw only the present and dreamed ol' a far distant future. Now that we are again returning to Irvine .'Xudit,orium this evening in june lSl47 to receive our awards for the hard struggle we have endured during these past years, time has melted away and that evening in September seems but as yesterday. Irvine ,Xuditorium will remain as our first and last impression of the livening School ol' Areounts and Finanre. 6

If we are to become ellective arms in the push toward a brighter horizon, it will be because we have carried from Logan Hall much more than skill in a commercial field. XVe have had the advantage of knowing and being guided by academic leaders who are inspiring teachers. Hfhile leading us down the paths of accounts and Iinancef' many of these men have given us a keener understand- ing of the most urgent needs of our city, our nation, and all humanity, YVe have learned the importance of harmony in filling these needs . . . whether it be cleaner drinking water, more equitable labor relations, or a spirit of international cooperation. YVe should now be able to make our decisions, not by echoing loud patriotic slogans, but by facing the facts about our needs, making an in- telligent survey of the means at our disposal, and working together, to use the best means for the good of all.
