Commerce
Dear Commerce Graduates:
Your graduation will be viewed by different people in different ways. Your professors will view it as an occasion to deliver themselves of some words of advice which are almost certain to begin with 鈥淎s we stand on the threshold of the atomic era, we face a challenge鈥︹�� Your girl (boy) friend may view it as a meal-ticket, your parents may view it with relief, and you, with surprise.
My advice to you 鈥淎s we stand on the threshold of the atomic era鈥︹�� is that you view it merely as evidence that you are 鈥渆ducatable鈥�. Further, I suggest that since you will no longer have the excuse of accounting assignments and term papers, there is no reason why you should not proceed with the real business of living which is self-education. In case this advice comes to you as a surprise, I would suggest that half of what you have learned will be obsolete or irrelevant by the time you come to apply it. Some of it was already wrong when we taught it to you, more of it will be superseded by the revolutions and evolutions that are taking place in the social and physical sciences, and do not forget, we had to compete for your attention with blondes and baseball so it is just possible you did not get some of it right in the first place.
I wish you success and I wish you luck. But if you begin a life-long programme of self-education now, you may not need the luck.
