Commerce
To the Graduates of 1959:
It is not possible for any of us to forecast the change and pace of economic activity during the next four or five decades in which you will pursue careers in business and industry. The knowledge that you have acquired in these college years will undoubtedly prove useful but the challenge of leadership remains unchanged — those individual qualities of heart and mind — the wisdom that attracts, the enegry [sic] that leads to, and the strength that supports ever increasing responsibilities and opportunities.
You were certainly forced to use your mind in wrestling with the courses of a heavy program. I hope that you have learned that intellectual exercise is always exiting end even rewarding. This discovery will lead to a lifetime of study, reflection and wonder — a truly happy and successful future.
The best wishes of all of us go with you.
