“Now understand me well — it is provided in the essence of things that from any fruition of success, no matter what, shall come something to make a greater strug- gle necessary.” — Walt Whitman This admonition, couched in different phrases, has been given to us time and time time again by poets, by philosophers, by statesmen, by historians. Old though it may be in concept, it continues to bring a challenge not to be ignored in our day. You graduates of the University of Rhode Island bask in the brilliant and glori- ous light of success. You have struggled to achievement and in the struggle you have grown in stature, both intellectually and spiritually, and have arrived at Com- mencement Day fully aware that this is the commencement — and only that — of a life of fulfillment. I call your attention to the struggle ahead with no intention of casting a shadow. Rather, I send my message to you with somewhat of a feeling of envy, for even the obstacles in your path will present a challenge that is thrilling, and overcoming them will make possible a future of greatness unlimited. If I were given some magical power to bestow upon you a gift that more than any other would help you face the challenge of tomorrow, I think I would ask for you the gift of curiosity. The world in which we live is not for the complacent. Progress is not born of satisfaction. Answers find no fertile soil in the unquestioning mind. Graduates of i960, meet the challenge that is before you. Meet it with awareness, meet it with courage, meet it with curiosity, and may God be with you all along the road. Christopher DelSesto Governor 9
