Secretary 7a the ezw 4 1944 What important suggestion can I give you as you are graduated from the University in IQ44? I feel sure that most young people who have had the advantage of a college or university training are anxious to make the most of their lives. They realize first of all that they owe a debt of grati- tude to their Alma Mater and to the community in which they live for the privilege of procuring an education: secondly, they realize that having won a degree they are merely at the beginning of their education as it usually requires years of study and hard thinking, coupled with practical experience, to really master any one or more of the subjects they have studied at college: and thirdly, they know that the satisfac- tions of the future are to be won almost entirely if not solely through their own energy, determination and efficiency. In view of these facts each graduate should spend a reasonable time planning, with pencil and paper in hand, for his future career. This is an age of planning. The future trends of the world and its two billion people are being studied as never before so, if possible, mankind may avoid the disastrous mistakes that have culminated, within a generation, in two world wars, and enjoy once more the peace for which everyone longs. If painstaking planning be imperative in the international, national, regional and local spheres in order to rebuild the political, economic and social life of our peoples, is it notlthe essence of wisdom to plan one's own life, and to bring it into harmony with what is good and what is true?
