Degrees Awarded At H-SC
Stuart T. Saunders
Makes Address AS
1S3rd Year Ends

Mans best hope of channeling the
explosions OF technology and direct
ing the aspirations of most of the
people Of the world lies in educa-
ton in the liberal arts. Stuart T.
Saunders said in his commence
ment address Monday morning end
ing MISUNDERSTANDING Colleges l83rd
academic year
The president Of The Norfolk &
Western Railway warned the Sc
graduates that the consequences
of mans failure to control forces he
unleashes will be far more ominous
and catastrophe than in past cen
turtles His subject was THE Un-
folding World of the Liberal Arts"
Saunders, who received one of
i've honorary degrees conferred by
President Joseph G. Robert in Johns
Auditorium, said, 1.-THE vast ma
lorlty of the people in this world
exist at or slightly above the bare
subsistence level. AS they grope for
economic fulfillm en t, conflict
ing ideologies compete for their
loyaltles. The future of western
civilization, indeed of all civili-
cation, depends on their choice.
Harness Bigness
THE problem will be comph-
Gated by the growing trend toward
bigness in government, business
and labor. The challenge that this
trend presents is as clear as it is
urgent: we must control and direct
these forces and institutions so that
they will serve us and not we
them
Success will require the literally
educated person who has been
liberated from the bonds of ignor-
ance and provincialsm and is free
to focus his intellectual powers on
the recurring questions that have
occupied men since the beginning
OF human existence" the railway
executive said.
The last half of the Twentieth
/ Century belongs not to the atom but
to educated minds. For it was edu-
Gated minds which exploded the
atom and moved the world into the
era OF expanding space.
What is needed is men and
women Of vision and wisdom. Per-
sons with sense Of history and con-
tinuity. as we'll as sufficient detach-
ment to view today's problems in
the larger context of civilization in
motion. A thorough liberal arts edu-
cation offers the most promising
opportunity for meeting this rigor-
Gus requirement"
Articulatc Persons
Saunders also found strength in
the liberal arts education as it
seeks to encourage the clear and
artlculate expression of ideas. This
is one Of civilized mans greatest
problems. for he is wholly depen-
dent upon communication with his
fellow man.
AS our civilization increases in
completely, the demand for liber-
ally educated people with discip-
lined minds and an imaginative ap-
proach will be Unsuitable. Men and
women with these qualities have al
ways been in short supply, and
those who measure up to this stan
dard can look forward to lives rich
in stimulating challenge and excit-
