Dr. Isaac Bacon Dean Yeshiva College In our present day society it has become fashionable to accept conclusions predicated on premises which upon closer examination have, at best, questionable validity. The unhealthy climate thus created is causing cherished values and ethical standards to crumble and to dis- integrate. This state should be of deep concern to every thinking human being. The unique education at Yeshiva College has given you the oppor- tunity to confront and to see through the pseudo character of the presently prevailing philosophies of life, and has guided you toward developing the kind of critical judgment which does not merely reflect somebody ' s prej- udices. Your Jewish studies have provided you with the signposts which should make it possible for you to find meaningful and purposeful answers for a life which, false prophets of our time proclaim, has no meaning. As you, members of the 37th graduating class, leave the sacred halls of Yeshiva, my best wishes as well as those of the faculty and ad- ministration go with you. I hope that whether you be far or near you will always retain interest in your Alma Mater and her concerns, and I wish each and every one of v u farewell in the sense that you may truly fare well. ytriu: i I ' i L Dr. Isaac Bacon Dean June 13, 1958
