Oswald, president of The Penn
sylvania State University, in his
remarks to the 1,230 graduates
receiving their degrees at the
Winter Term commencement

decadence and impersonal
blight? How does this increase in
power and mobility serve us and
how does it destroy our
quietude?" Dr. Oswald con
tinued.
Never before has there been
such general concern among
youth as to what is a better/fuller
life for ourselves and for all
people, the Penn State president
continued, asking if, "ius't
because we know how to do
something faster or to go farther,
is it human wisdom to do so?"
Dr. Oswald said that this

quality of life, seemed to him to
be the basis of much of the
student unrest.
"For some older people, these
questions shake the very foun
dations of life's focus. A
generation ago there was
seemingly little doubt that more
was better," he continued.
"And yet all of us stand to
benefit from at least pausing to
look around and see in what
directions various choices lead."
Dr. Oswald told the graduates
among them more rhan 300
receiving advanced degrees
that "the exciting thing about this
generation is that for the most
part you are choosing in great
numbers to deal with the survival
crises of our time."
"Sometimes," he continued,
"older people urge more

seasoned wisdom but the
important fact is that most of you
are choosing to use the op
portunity to be a part of the
determination of direction for our
world."
