You have reached a goal in successfully completing your basic training, the foun dation to higher education. The world is more than ever in need of young, strong, sturdy types of manhood and womanhood to assume positions of dominant leadership at a time when we are confronted with so many perplexing problems. To the normal strength and perfections of physical body there should be added high scholastic achievement associated with proper social and moral standards and the recognition of a divine guidance. The proper association of these qualities in the individual results in a strength of character uniform and symmetrical in its makeup. Those privileged to attend institutions of higher learning are fortunate indeed. training The opportunity for scientific presents itself at once to those entering the college doors. I T is this substantial base upon which to build the superstructure of specializa tion that enables one to understand what we see and read and hear, to interpret it correctly, and to make wise application of the deductions resulting. There is a greater need today for support of the technical by the liberal and cultural in education than ever before. The Michigan State College of Agricul ture and Applied Science is essentially a technological college in which the sciences form the base with abundant opportunities of support by the liberal and cultural resulting in the establishment of all the good qualities of citizenship and leader ship.
