President I am glad to say goodbye to you. A rapid reading of that statement might sound a bit harsh and certainly inappropriate, but 1 suggest that each of you re-read it with the knowledge that I consider the members of the Class of 1966 mature and intelligent and capable of making valuable contributions to society. I am confident that you will bring success to yourselves and with it honor to the College. Therefore, go and bring lustre to your degrees. Vice-President I will not exhort the Class of '66 to go out and change the world. They'll help to do that, for better or worse. But they’ll also discover that they have a lot—a whole lot—of personal living to do. With that in mind, I’ll borrow words which a lovely story says the Pope spoke to Marco Polo before the latter started off for China. “Child, I will not keep you any longer. Only to say this, and this is the chiefest thing: never let your dream be taken from you. Keep it unspotted from the world. In darkness and in tribulation it will go with vou as a friend; but in wealth and power hold fast to it, for then is danger. Let not the mists of the world, the gay diversions, the little trifles, draw you from glory.”
