The Champ Returneth!

Page 9 text:

The Class Adviser’s Message Forty-niners of the twentieth century: As our gold rush of four years comes to an end my heart is full. Naturally, as your friend, I share your joy in the prospect of pushing farther westward to newer and bigger mines. But also, as your native guide, I regret being left behind. Many of you have proved yourselves out- standing prospectors in the most rapid develop- ment these parts have ever witnessed. New build- ings, new curricula, and a new degree in four swift years are surely strikes worth laying a claim to. But what of your personal stakes made dur- ing the same rush? They are what interest me most. Only the greenest tenderfoot could still feel that our venture has been but a series of dances from Frosh Frolic to Senior Strut. Some of you have even discovered the false glitter in q. p. de- posits and extra-curricular pans. And I hope most of you are finally aware that a few years will rob your claims of both the ore and silt of academic facts. What of value will remain? If your digging has taught you that self satis- faction contains more carats than success, that love is a purer nugget than “tolerance”, that wisdom is more precious ore than skill, in short, that knowing how to live pays more than know- ing how to make a living, your claim is solid gold. Forty-niners, then you are rich — and the mine you leave at Kingston is also so much the richer for your having worked it. 5
