Address by Jerry Sullivan.
Following the introduction by Toast
master vinsonhaler, Mr.. Sullivan spoke
on the "university's Duty to the State"
Paying a tribute to the memory Of the
Creighton brothers, Edward and John.
Mr.. Sullivan said that Creighton and
Omaha" and business integrity and free
education" are synonymous and It is well
that the citizens OF this city meet once
each year TO give praise 70 the memory
Of those who. during their lives, did SO
much for the state and hs people.
Speaking of the early history of Creigh-
ton university, the speaker said the men
who founded the institution did so In
the starry night, out on the prairies Of
the boundless west, with the broad canopy
Of heaven as their roof. Hardship and
toll was a daily occurrence. hut ny their
industry and energy they erected monu-
ment that time cannot destroy. II was
not through books they ascerIained the
proposition. but, It was on the field Of
strife and TOLL added the speaker, that
they beheld the mighty questions now
confronting US and the necessity Of meet
ing them.
These men with ideals Of the highest
and a determination that was marvellous
grasped the opportunity and linked your
city with the golden west. Here, they
said, we will erect a university where
the youth Of the land will be Instructed
to become upright men.
ITO Creighton university, all power
and praise. Standing as 1t does. IN the
center Of a great nation, in time when
the solution OF mighty questions ere up
permost, when the integrity of the alton
Is at stake, when men and women are
appealing for more rights. for equal OPP
portunlties; oh. what moment to lend
influence and inspiration to those within
its walls. For those who depart TO do
the work assigned, what heritage Trey
have By the good work Of this university.
An institution whose doors are always
open: whose path is ever toward the
morning sun; that stands for the right. is
worthy Of those who made It possible
to exist.
Go forth, mighty university, and let
your influence and career be as true In
every field and department as your
founders; so live that home and state may
rejoice at the work you are doing End at
last, when this republic perishes, II ever
it does, let the flag Of Creighton uni
versity. with humanity written upon its
folds, be the last to sink"
