It is not so very impartant for a person to learn faas. For that he does not really need a college. He can learn them from books. The value of an education in a liberal arts college is not learning of many faas but the uaining of the mind to think something that cannot be learned from textbooks.

Tribute to

the Seniors

President Adams and the 2005 brick for the Pub

75

WELCOME, 2005!

We had just gotten back from

and were still a bit lost on campus. We gathered in the

chapel, where Parker Beverage, Dean of Admissions, presented us -- the Class of 2005, the -- to President Adams. What an

we were ...

My Colby admission colleagues and I selected you from a pool of first year applicants more than eight times your present size of 488. You had many good reasons for choosing Colby. One of you wrote, "Colby just seems like the ideal college experience: intelligent and passionate students, a unique and practical academic agenda, and a beautiful campus full of resources." A classmate, who had flown from Seattle to visit us, said, "The moment I stepped onto the Colby campus, I was speechless. My first thoughts were 'Wow! This is where I belong."' And you do. You all belong, and whatever your reasons for choosing Colby, we're absolutely delighted you're here.

You came to Colby from all over the world, from the islands of Maine and from Manhattan, Long Island, Staten Island, Hong Kong, and Prince Edward Island. You came from Butterfly Town, USA, the City of Angels, the Big Easy, the Gateway to the West, the Snowmobile Capital of the World, and the Lobster Capital of the World. You are unquestionably the most multicultural and internationally diverse class ever to enter Colby. You speak Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian, Romanian, Russian, Tagalog, Polish, Burmese, Portuguese, Korean, Albanian, Tibetan, Hindi, and 20 other languages33 in all! Ten percent of you represent African-American, Latin-American, Asian­ American, and Native-American backgrounds. Most of you come to Colby directly from a four-year high school. Two of you, however, finished high school in three years. Many incoming students this year follow family members to Colby. Two of you, in fact, represent the fourth and fifth generations of family members to attend Colby. On the other hand, nearly ten percent of you are from families in which neither parent pursued a four-year college education.

In terms of academic strength, your class brings to Colby an impressive variety of interests and records of achievement. A number of you earned the Society of Women Engineers Award, the RPI Medal, and the Bausch & Lomb Award for outstanding achievement in math and science. Others won the Xerox Award for excellence in the humanities and social sciences. You received book awards from some 20 different colleges and universities, from Boston College, Brown, and Colby to Wellesley and Williams. A number of you scored perfect 800's on your verbal or math SATs; you earned 800's on SAT-II Subject, S's on Advanced Placement tests, and a perfect point total of 45 on your International Baccalaureate Diploma. One of you earned A+'s in every single academic subject throughout four years of high school. Your class brings to the Colby community a wealthy of work experience and special training, too. One of you has performed as a roving accordion minstrel; others have managed a candy store, served as a Sunday School superintendent, operated an apiary, raked wild Maine blueberries, worked as a stern man on a lobster boat, and been a baseball stadium vendor at Jacob's Field. You bring to Colby talents in art, music, and theater; accomplishments in speech and debate; and athletic skills. Many of you were all-league, all-conference, all-district, and all-state musicians and athletes, and some of you enjoyed even wider recognition. One of you is a professional actor and member of the Screen Actors Guild. Two of you have performed at Carnegie Hall, one with your fife and drum corps, another with the Children's Choru s of San Antonio.

These, then, are some of the interests, talents, achievements, and backgrounds that distinguish your class. I coul enumerate many others. Let me just say, though, that each and every one of you made it successfully through a very competitiv admission process, and that each of you brings something special to Colby. Your many special qualities will enrich those at th College who are fortunate to study and work with you and to teach you during your years at Colby. Finally, while the numerou accomplishments of your class suggest that you are a very competitive group, you will, if you are like the Colby classes which hav gone before you, work together well, pulling and pushing one another along, rather than pushing one another aside, You will b proud of your own achievements; at the same time, you will delight in the success of your classmates. Now, President Adams, fo their matriculation at Colby College, it is my privilege to present to you and to the members of the faculty, this extraordinary Colb Class of 2005.

AU REVOIR, 2005!

Baccalaureate -- the

given by Colby's president to the

graduating class. It was the closing event of the undergraduate experience that began with the :onvocation four years earlier when the

signed Colby's matriculation book.

In thinking about your time at Colby, I must confess to feeling a kind of personal connection with your class. For like my vn generation's College experience, yours, too, was profoundly marked and shaped by extraordinary things happening far from 3.yflower Hill. You know, I am sure, what I mean by extraordinary things. No future graduating class at Colby is likely to experience 9 startling surprises you have experienced. For it was here, in your time, that the curse of the Bambino was finally broken. It was ire, in your time, that the "idiots" staged the impossible comeback against the evil empire - "my daddy," as Pedro Martinez put 50 creatively. And it was here, in your time, that the New England Patriots won not one, not two, but three world championships professional football. If any period at Colby can be called historic, then, it is certainly yours. And I am sure that future classes II look back with envy and astonishment upon your experience.

Now, on the verge of your departure, that reality is closer than ever before. I would not blame you if you are wondering how 9 degree I will lay in your hands tomorrow relates to the sorts of things you will encounter on the day after. Those things . . ---.,..L.:.·-·!-� are not limited, of course, to politics and history. They include the more familiar and prosaic things that all of us expect to have to sort out in life: a meaningful and rewarding - .. ·J professional life; engagement with the communities we inhabit; happy and satisfying personal lives. How well are you prepared to grapple with all of these things? Indeed, are you prepared in any way at all? Consider, first, an article that appeared in the April I I 12 edition of The Wall Street Journal entitled "Future CEO's May Need to Have Broad Liberal Arts Foundation. " The Wall Street Journal, I should note, has not built its I reputation on warm and fuzzy optimism or a particular friendliness to liberal arts colleges. But in the case of this article, a very definite sort of optimism is attached to the prospects of students from places very much like this one. "The route to the top (of the corporate ladder)," the article begins, "is changing, management experts say."

One of those experts is Peter Veruki, head of external relations at Vanderbilt University's Owen Graduate School of Management. He defines the new route to success in this way. "It's about maturity and leadership," the article continues, "rather than about how many accounting courses did you take. . .. Companies are going to start to look at the fundamental value set of an individual and their basic education. Did they study philosophy and culture and history rather than just accounting, finance and engineering?" And here's my favorite part: "Fast-forward 20 or 30 years," this expert goes on, "and we're going to find business leaders who maybe majored in philosophy rather than business."

Not everyone aspires, I know, to become a CEO. But for all you humanities majors out there, and there are many of you, I hope this perspective provides a general sense of encouragement, if not vindication. I will be happy to share a copy of the article - President Adams with your parents. In a variety of ways, from the personal to the occupational to the political, I predict that you will be steadily surprised and delighted by how well and often the intellectual foundation you have built at Colby will serve you. Never underestimate the quality and utility of what you have done here as a platform for engaging and iderstanding the thorny problems that will surely come your way in the years ahead. In ways you cannot now imagine, your Colby perience will return again and again to serve you. And so too, I trust, will your sense of belonging to one another and to Colby. >u carry this connection with you in your memory and feelings, and in your relationships with classmates and teachers. And now u can also look forward to encountering it among other Colby graduates. Like all large and extended families, this one has lots members. You will find them in every place you work and live, and you will discover in their presence the part of you that is still ·re. As you do so, I hope you will come to feel a keen sense of responsibility for Colby. For as alumni, this place really does belong you in a new and powerful way. Its future well being will depend increasingly on your affection and support, as its present strength ·pends on those who have preceded you. Thank you for your hard work, for your achievements, and for your commitment to this :tee. And thank you, above all else, for letting us be involved in this remarkably interesting and promising time in your lives. That why we are here, after all. And it is work in which we achieve our most important satisfactions. Good luck to you all; God bless u; and goodbye.

To the Class of 2005 : I've been asked by the Oracle editors to offer you some words to live by . The task rem inds me of an icon ic movie scene from my youth . You probably know it. It is the moment in The Graduate when William Daniels sid les u p to Dusti n Hoffman and, i n a whisper, assures Hoffman that his future ca n be assured by just one word : " p lastics . " Even i f I cou ld , I wouldn't disti l l everyth i ng I have learned into one word and wh isper it into you r col lective ea r. As m i ne have been, you r lives and the mean ings you w i l l derive from them are yours to discover. It is a sweet and slig htly terrifying fact of youth (and of life, rea l ly). Whatever you have done up to this point, you cannot know for sure where you r future passions, victories or disasters w i l l lie. That uncertainty is w h a t makes life interesting a n d worth getting up for every morn i n g . As one of my teachers was fond of saying to his students: "the future is not some place you are going to-it's someth ing you are making . " I have met many o f you i n the course o f o u r time together a t Col by.

I have watched you act i n plays, dance, compete in ath letic

Dear Class of 2005, Each Colby class has its own u n ique flair and rhythm with a mix of unforgetta ble personal ities and cherished stories. Your class has been graced with bright m i nds, u n l i m ited potential and close bonds that will last a lifeti me.

From COOT trips, to walks around this beautiful campus, to heated debates with challenging professors who stretched your minds and sometimes scrambled you r brains, the Colby experience of approximately 1000 days, has been unforget­ ta ble in powerful ways.

Each year at commencement, a sea of faces and memories flood my mind , as I have the honor of read ing graduation names, as seniors approach the stage for the last moment of Colby g lory .

Please know how much so many of you have touched me. I know some of you better than others, but the endu ring pride I have in this place, is the result of a l l those who came before you, your own class and the promise of those to come.

contests, g ive speeches, sing, protest, play m usic, study on the M i l ler Lawn, g ive m useu m tours, and much more . I've joi ned you for dessert and a Red Sox game in your residence halls. I have met you d u ri ng my office hours, when you ca me to object earnestly to a College pol icy, or just to say hello (thanks for that) . I have read your e-mails to me on subjects ranging from the state of pol itica l discou rse on ca mpus to the state of our pa rki ng lots. I know you .

And knowing you, I am sure of you . You r lives and thei r meanings are i n good hands: you rs.

The words to l ive by? Trust yourselves. I do.

Fondly, Bro
