Earl C. Bo on,.. LL.D., vice president of the University of Souther California, who gave the c mencement ad- dress, said "Those amiliar with eciu- the West, are this institution with k n interest and hope. In the ast decade many per- sons ve expressed the opin- ion t t it is no longer pos- sibl o establish an indepen- den and privately supported in tution of higher learn- in Hence, those of us who ieve in the importance of ivate education applaud ith vigor the unbelievable strides which this institution has made in its few years of existence. You are launched as a great and growing uni- versity and I feel understand- able pi·ide in being called upon to make your first com- mencement address." Bishop Presides The Most Reverend Bishop presided at the exercises and presented diplomas to 24 graduates of the Men's Col- lege and the School of Law. Dr. Bolton, whose address was titled "Vl'isdom in an Age of Materialism," told the graduates and some 600 friends and relatives present ·I that discussion of his sub- ject was not difficult "in these haUs, for here I per- ceive an interest in the total or fulfilled man and not just the educated man.'' ••You can imagine 1 " he continued, "the delight I felt when I found in your bulle- tin a statement defining the objective of this University as ', , . formation of the com- plete man;· the development of the intellectual and moral virtues which provide the se- cure foundation of a happy personal life and sound citi- zenship.'" Learning, degrees and aca- demic recognition, he said, are "but the shadow of the real and ultimate good to which wisdom relates itself; they can be truly good and beneficial only when allied to that wisdom." Simple Wisdom The U.S.C. vice president continued: "You, as a college gradu- ate, will be expected by soci- ety to achieve many things as you Ii ve in this confused world. You will be required to provide leadership, you will be regarded as one possessed of an objective mind and a certain level of intellectual comprehension. Your stand- ard of living and Income will be superior to that of the av- erage American. But with all your gelling and with ~II the status you achieve, you will somehow have failed in your responsibilities to your God, your society, and yourself, if you do not acquire the ingre- dients of simple wisdom." It Is easier, he added, to say what wisdom is not than to say what it is. "It is NOT necessarily re- lated to education, but an educated man may find it easier to become a wise man. Wisdom goes beyond learn- ing and knowledge, for edu• cation and I e a r n in g and knowledge can be used for wrongful ends and in cruel and d i s a s t r o u s ways, whereas wisdom, in its best sense, cannot. "Wisdom is NOT a quality of recent vintage; it pos- sesses a certain timelessness. For though you can properly speak of modern art, modern science, mbdern music, 1nod- ern philosophy, I have never heard of the expression mod- ern wisdom. "But a wise man somehow is humble and realizes in his wisdom that there is much to learn .•. "Moreover, wisdom is built upon restraint, self-denial and a refusal to worship at the shrine of materialism. Great industry may lead to a million dollars, a co o'ta presidency, political nence or a listing in \"'ho, but it will not --...-.- the acquisition of wisdom • "Then, too, wisdom Is bu upon truth and leads to t1 freedom.
