Our Director Au. I want, to extend my sincere congratulations to the stu- dents who have finished their required curriculum. You have set a timely example because the most important investment you can make in this world is the discovery and develop- ment of all your talents. This investment alone has equipped you to meet the challenge of modern technology. You are equipped to do a job-do it well-give your employer more than he is paying for and you will find the results rewarding in every way. Remember-education does not stop on graduation day.

To the students who are leaving- good luck and report back often. To the students who are returning in the fall, we are looking to you for leadership in the year ahead.
