To members of the graduating class: If you will think for a moment about the changes which have taken place in science, industry, and com- munications just during the twelve years you have attended school, you must recognize that yours is an era of change and that you will need to continue learning throughout your life. If we have helped you develop a continuing desire to learn and the basic skills to enable you to learn, we have succeeded, if not, we have failed you. As you continue to learn and to increase your ability to contribute to society, I am sure the entire faculty wishes you well. Please visit the school often and let us know what you are doing and how you are getting along. jM.A 63 ffvae-A Frank Greer Dr. Frank B. Greer: Appalachian State Teacher's College, B.
