To The Students Engraved in the stone of an ancient Greek temple were these words, Know Thyselff' Another favorite saying from classical Greece was Knowledge is powerf' For millennia, primitive man lived and moved and had his being in a state of in- tellectual darkness and ignorance. He had little knowledge of himself, or of the world into which he had been born and was des- tined to die at an early age. But with the invention of the alphabet and of writing, knowledge rapidly became cumulativeg per- sonal development and social progress be- came attainable. We now know that through continuous, tireless effort, man will event- ually Usubdue the earth and have dominion over itf, The chief assignment of a univer- sity, operating in a free world, is to discover new knowledge and disseminate it. It is the hope of men everywhere that through the light of knowledge the ignorance which keeps most of mankind in a state of hunger, disease and perpetual fear will be dispelled.
