You ...
Always look ahead ... face your problems ... think
tilings out before acting ...
These little thoughts have been presented to you for
many years, but how many of you have taken time to an
alyze them -and realize their worth. - -
Upon entering the University, you become an individual
on your own. You become You. An entirely new you, maybe,
with your own problems to face, your own ideals to set up
and your own decisions to make.
in. the haze of your high school graduation ceremony,
you may not have listened too intently to the words of your
commencement speaker. But thinking back, you may be
able to grasp a, few of the phrases be passed on to you,
giving to you the world of responsibility never before fully
belonging to you alone.
It won't take common sense alone to make a success of
your college career. It will take the initiative of planning
ahead to achieve all you may want ... to achieve success.
It win take the initiative of looking ahead to adult
responsibility in scholastic achievements; of looking ahead
to financial responsibilities, and most of all, to looking ahead
to what you wiH become.
As you become a member of the Cornhusker family,
the responsibility will become even greater ... to look
ahead to what you can and will give to the University,
your University.
It will take a lot of YOU, looking ahead, to continue to
give the University of Nebraska the distinction of being
one of the best, because of what You can give It, and
Yourself.

As she walks forward, she, as you, is thinking of the

But, most of all, she is thinking cf this, ber first year

It was .stated as conciseHy and as clearly as we have
heard'in a statement by Chancellor Cu&tavjBon.
He aidi
"The University m the Hart analyses as not a group of
buildings, although buildings are important. It its not the
laboratories, iim,portant as these things are. In a very real
ssense, iit Its a (Comradeship between the people oi the state, the
faculty and the staff of the University, and the young people
