they have a right to voice their opinion in shaping educational

enthusiasm, their desire to work f o r better conditions in the
world, and their ideals of responsibility as future citizens, they
have a great opportunity to become a powerful factor in the
educational and political life of the nation. May they make the
most of i t !
