Address
by Admiral Turner
Reminding graduates that they were fortunate to be
finishing their programs in the mid-70's, instead of the
turbulent 60's, set the tone for the Admiral's message.
He called the United States "the largest and most im-
portant public organization in the world," and urged
graduates to get involved in government, taking a keen
interest in its affairs.
The Admiral, with 31 years of government service,
urged those with talent the government can use "to offer
it for at least a part of your working life; in so offering
you will be making a contribution to the continued
strength of our country and all themonderfulthings for
which it stands." , . ?
"If you think about government service today you
will be one of many bright young people whom I see
around the White House, the Halls of Congress, the
Pentagon, the CIA, and elsewhere. The place is teeming
with people of your age and just a little older."
During his speech, Turner barely mentioned the CIA.
He suggested that this year's class was luckier than
those that went to school in the late 1960s and early
1970s.
"While your predecessors were understandably and
justifiably concerned with the social and political wrongs
they saw around them," he said, "in some measure they
became the victims of their own crusades."
"In their day participation in Causes was viewed as
either black or white. You were either for them or
against them. If you were .a moderate you were copping
out. The pressure on college students to choose sides
was intense, and the pressure to choo?e the side against
the amorphous mass known as the government was in-
tense indeed."
The Admiral said this year's graduates, having avoided
those "unnatural pressures," can now "go forward with
a more objective outlook and conduct and objective
scrutiny of the activities of government for the rest of
their lives."

Annual Fund Nears $100,000
Goal
Nelson J. Gulski '26, Chairman
of the 1976-77 Annual Fund, has
reported that, as of July 1, the
drive was better than 90% of the
Wait towards reaching its goal.
A last minute campaign to
? selected groups of alumni and to
.'those with outstanding phono-
thon pledges is expected to
close the final gap. The appeal
stresses the need for increased -
alumni giving in "building a
better Bryant" and in maintain-
ing the College's standards of
excellence.
This years gifts include hun-
dreds of donors who have not
previously given to Bryant. For
the first time, the current Fund
drive has directed appeals to
parents, the business community,
and employees of the College as
well as alumni.

Some Thoughts on Graduation Day from an Alumnus
by Charles Wielgus, Class of 1947
On this happy and important day you are understand-
ably pleased, proud - and perhaps relieved. It is possible
that your parents are even prouder. And understand-
ably so, for they have contributed importantly to this
day.
It would also be understandable if some of you felt
more pleased and more proud than others -- those who
did very well in terms of honors or extracurricular act-
ivities or both. And it's possible that some of you,
despite the achievement of graduation, feel a little dis-
appointed because you didn't do quite as well as you
could have.
To each of you I say, with the advantage and per-
spective of experience in observing the development
of individuals in a variety of careers and life styles: Be
neither too self - satisfied nor discouraged, because
this day marks a new beginning in your personal
development.
As we observe the growth and fulfillment of in-
dividual lives in our own families, communities and
organizations,we can see that a significant part of such
growth frequently begins after college. Certainly, the
college experience is a very important one and it is
often the indispensable ingredient of a successful and
productive life. But it would be misleading to suggest
that your, future is preordained by the level of accom-
plishment during your college years. In any graduating
class, it is likely that the distance between those with
the highest scholastic standings and those with the
lowest is not so great as to be insurmountable by those
personal qualities are not always apparent in the
academic environment. For in this increasingly spec-
ialized age, scholastic brilliance or aptitude alone are
not enough. Character, integrity, personality, interest
and persevering application are still, as I believe they -
have always been, characteristics most evident in ?suc-
cessful men and women.
We live in a world in which most of us must compete
in order to achieve. In that competition, you and I are
very fortunate to have had the opportunity t?tudy at
this truly unique institution. Over the years, Bryant
College has deservedly earned a very fine reputation ?
an excelent one in the world of work, the world in
which our economic needs are met and in which most
of us make our major contribution to society.
Bryant's well balanced curriculum of specialized
education in business principles and techniques, to-
gether with the high quality of its liberal arts subjects,
have prepared you well for the opportunities and
challenges which lie ahead. These'opportunities and
challenges will be real and damanding. They will
change, perceptively or imperceptively, with every
change in technology and with every shift in the social,
economic and political structure.

To you, therefore, who have earnestly applied
your energies and talents while at Bryant, I would
suggest that this is no time to rest. The energy and
qualities that brought success in your academic
life will prove beneficial in the careers yet to come,
but only if the effect is sustained and only if you
continue to apply and develop those characteristics.
To you who may now wish you tried a little
harder, I would suggest that the next four years
will probably be even more important than the
past four in shaping the direction of your life. Let
whatever concern you may have with your aca-
demic effort and performance be the trigger that
sparks a new interest, a greater-drive and a more
determined effort to succeed where Bryant's grad-
uates have always done so well..
To all of you, therefore, the message, is essen-
tially the same: This day is indeed an important
and a joyous milestone, but one that marks a be-
ginning rather than an end.
If my message seems overly serious on such a
day of celebration, let me hasten to add that the
really fun years are ahead.
Because we have shared in a common educa-
tional experience, I know you will bring to those
years of challenge and opportunity all that you
have received at Bryant, as well as your own ample
supply of natural aptitude and enthusiasm.
I congratulate you for meeting the commitment
you made when you entered Bryant and confid-
ently predict equal fulfillment of the promise you
represent today.

Anything new or exciting happened to you lately? If so, let us know.
