Editor Men and women of Carolina, graduates and non-graduates ore requested to send alumni news and their changing addresses to the Alumni Office, University Compus, Columbia, South Carolina CAROLINA I Because of its possible interest to University men in the armed services as well as to students preparing to serve, the Alumni Association is publishing the fol lowing address to the graduating class May 31, 1943, delivered by President J. Rion McKissick of the University. It has never been printed before. Graduates of 194': Neither you nor your fellow-stu dents and the members of our fac ulty and administrative staff will ever forget the University year which ends tonight. For it has been the year of the swiftest transition, the greatest change in the long life of this in stitution. Ours is no longer simply a Uni versity because within six months it has become al;o a training school of the United States Navy for the na tion's defense. By the end of this calendar year, in addition to the host of regular I niversity students preparing to en ter the armed services, more than three thousand five hundred young men in Navy units will have re ceived some part of their training here. All these groups combine to form by far the largest number ever as senbled for instruction on our can pus. The University is now making and will continue to make by far its greatest contribution to national defense. Our Alma Mater is doing and will continue to do her utmost for the preservation of the freedom and in dependence of America. To this patriotic achievenient you .nd your fellow-students have con tributed greatly. For you, as well as for the rest of the student body and our faculty, the University's partial transforma tion into a training school for our "land of hope and glory" has meant inconvenience, disconifort, change from accustonied ways of work and life on our campus, but, proud and grateful that the University in this way has been called upon to serve, you have cheerfully and helpfully cooperated. Your attitude and your coopera tion in such circumstances amply attest your tidelity of the highest traditions of our University as well as your love of country. , You are entitled to the gratitude of both. Oin land and sea andl in the air ini this country and in foreign lands thousands of the sonis of our Uni versity are serving in the defenise of Anierica. They are measuring up to the nob)lest traditionis of their Alma Mater, their State and nation. Ini courage, service, sacrifice, and achievenment toward v'ictory, man for man, they eqtual the sons of any other institution in the United States. Here by y'our coniduct you have kept faith with them and soon a le gion of von will take y'our places be sidle them and will prove yourselves worthy of their comradeship. As true of thme sons and daughters of Carolina as of any others are these statements made not long ago to thme Conference of Public Inisti tutions of the Southern States by 1,eo Chiamberlaini of the University of Kentuckv: ".. Wheni war must come as this one has conie, the colleges and their young men and women have not failed to rise to the emergency. Lieut.

N THE WAR "Those of us who have given our entire lives to the service of edu cation can find no greater satisfac tion than the realization that the young people with whom we have recently labored have met this great challenge and are 'coming through.' "Vhere now is the evidence that they were soft, pampered and undis- 0 ciplined ? "In the history of the nation youth has never given a better ac count of itself." Our Alma Mater has survived three great wars in 'which our coutn try has been engaged. Virtually her entire student body served in the Confederate army in he War for Southern Independence. A vast proportion of her sons served in the first World War. . In the present war an immense multitude of her former students are also doing their full part. Their record and yours evidences that our University has never sent foi th conscientious objectors, draft dodgers and slackers. Their record and yours evidences that our Alma Mater has reared her sons and daughters to be loyal Americans in war as well as in peace. Their record and yours evidences that here and at home they and you have learned the lesson that service of our country in time of war is not only the highest duty but also the highest honor. One of the greatest of. our fellow alumni, Wade Hlampton, when lie was nominated for governor of South .Carolina in 1876, told the nominating convention: "There are men in this State in wlose eyes I possess disqualifica tions of which I cannot dispossess myself and would not if I codld. "I mean my army,record. "If I were to say that I am ashamed of it, I would be saying that which is not true. 'All the offices in the world niight perish before I would say so." When Gen. Robert E. Lee was president of Washington College af ter the war, one of its students, a youthful Confederate veteran, re marked to him: "I am so impatient to make up for the time I lost in the army He got no further. General Lee flushed and ex claimed in an almost angry tone: "Mr. Humphreysl However long you live and whatever you accom plish, you will find that the time y'ou spent in the Confederate army wvas the miost profitably spent por tioni of your life. "Never again speak of having lost time in the army.'' Far more iln the ye-irs to come than now you wvill prize the price less dlistinction andl honor of having served our country in the (lays of her (direst dlanger. Men and wvomen of Carolina. as you leave her, your Alma Mater is serenely confident that in this su preme crisis you1 will acquit your selves with shining courage, loyalty and dlevotion in our ''sweet land of liberty.''
