The President ' s Message idcnl Seymour A YEAR ago, in the Yale Banner and Senior Class Book, I expressed the hope that the undergraduate life of Yale, as we have known it, might continue undisturbed. That hope, we now realize, cannot be fulfilled. Yale, which is con- secrated in a general sense to the service of the nation, must for the time being devote herself to a special service, — helping to win the war. To this end all the resources of the University are pledged. Until the final victory is achieved the effort of the University must be concentrated on aid to the armed forces, whether through the ac- tive service of our faculties, the research of our laboratories, or the training of our students. To those men who go out from this campus to serve in the armed forces, Yale gives her salu- tation, confident that they will acquit themselves manfully and intelligently, showing forth the qualities which life at Yale has developed. Their education here was not designed for war, but we are convinced that it will none the less have pre- pared them for war. Such was the experience of their predecessors who left Yale a quarter of a century ago to fight in the A.E.F. of .1917, and showed the capacities for leadership which the Army and Navy seek. The military and naval authorities today insist upon those same capacities and assure us that they are best developed by the broad and fundamental course of study which is the traditional characteristi c of a Yale education. During the years immediately before us much that has characterized the old Yale life will of necessity be sacrificed. Campus customs will change, traditional student activities will be cur- tailed, the pleasant frivolities of the leisure hours will disappear. All these have their value in an American education. We cannot afford them in war time. But our undergraduates will create new values on the campus. A patriotic purpose will be given to student activities, both curricular and athletic, which will provide new stimulus; if the course of study is more severe, it will also be more closely related to its object; nor can any sort of discipline extinguish the sense of humor and the capacity to adjust himself to circumstances that have always characterized the undergraduate. Thus, although the war will change Yale ex- ternals, I do not think that it will alter, far less destroy, the factors, whether intellectual or so- cial, that have made our education worth while. We are fortunate, also, that even during the war the Government urges an education which will serve also to prepare men for peace. In the hard months that lie before us we shall not forget our ultimate obligation to the nation, our responsibility for the preservation of learning and for the en- lightenment that it brings to all the people.
