Hanford speaks at fall convocation West Virginia State College presents Fall Convocation George H. Hanford, Speaker Wednesday, September 18, 1985 I2OOrazne Auditorium of Harrison H. Ferrell Building Welcome Introduction of Speaker President, West Virginia State College Musical Selection—Etude in A-flat Major, op. 25 1 Mark Alexander. Pianist Convocation Address President, College Entrance Board lma Mater by Rachel Campbell-Muhammazd, editor “‘WWVSC students are part of the pri- vileged citizens of the world,’’ ac- cording to George H. Hanford, presi- dent of the College Entrance Board. Hanford was the guest speaker at the fall convocation held in Ferrell Audi- torium on Sept. 18. Hanford’s topic was the relevance of higher education in the world today. As he put it, ‘‘Education is man’s best hope for peace in the world.”’ He talked of his travels and how seeing familiar p roblems in unfamiliar settings has helped him grapple with the problems surrounding education in America. ‘Urbanization is not peculiarly an American problem.’’ He cited as an example, that Bangkok and Singapore are facing similar problems in making educational changes that will reflect the changing lifestyle of the country. Hanford perceives the world as be- coming more integrated. ‘‘Isolationism does not make sense. There is a growing interdependence between the nation’s of the world. We must strike a balance between the first, second and third worlds, so they will eventually become one,” he said. Thomas W. Cole, Jr. Fo Chopin George H. Hanford, president of College Entrance Board. FA Se George II. Hantord Hanford said that the world is on the brink of nuclear holocaust, and that man is destroying his environment, committing in effect ecological suicide. Discussing world hunger, Hanford said that 35,000 children die every day from hunger. He then asked what quality of life could they expect if they lived? ‘‘Hdunger is one problem among many that must be solved to guarantee the lives of millions. ‘If the world’s problems were simple we'd have solved them. ”’ He maintained that a balance could be found, but that solu- tions will require the best minds man has to offer. ‘‘Minds are bettered by edu- cation, especially higher edu- cation. There is an explicit re- cognition of the need for higher education.’ In his address Hanford com- mented on the responsibilities inherent in higher education. ‘Students are citizens of the world,’’ he said. ‘“‘The world’s population is approximately 4.6 billion. Fifty million are getting a college education, that is about 1 per- cent. The responsibility is awesome in terms of the world’s problems,’’ he added. ‘This may sound like high- flown rhetoric, but it isn’t. Our nation has been able to grow because of its investment in education.”’ Hanford said that it was up to students, those blessed by the opportunity of higher educa- tion, and those in following generations, to make a success of the world.
