Edward P. Yaglou THIS IS « 3 ' oB For-.. SUPERiwTeypgjrrl To the class of 1971 Most of us are concerned with change and improvement in our schools, our government, our homes. How long does change take? Dictatorship decrees change and it happens, on the surface at least. Whereas in a democracy, gaining public concensus takes time. Each person feels sure that if he were dictator, he’d decree the proper changes, however then we would all worry about who’s going to be dictator. For two hundred years we have tolerated the sluggish pace of democratic concensus in the faith that the collective wisdom of the citizenry is better than the uncertainty of who is to be the dictator and what errors in judgment he might make. That’s “the system” for us in the United States. Each of our ideas must pass the test: Can I convince 51% of the voters that it is a wise move ? So now, as you graduates step out to participate in the larger society, your former teachers will be watching with interest. Let us see if your ideas are good enough to pass the test. And let us see if you are willing to work hard enough to achieve that necessary concensus. This kind of thinking would seem to be an effective approach to our shared wish—for each other and for the world—Peace. iries: standing—D. Sherblom, M. Pearson, M. Wernholm, B. Dymon, J. Masu V.
