It gives me a great deal of
pleasure to be given this oppor
tunity by Campus Colloquy to
pass along to you what hopeful
ly will be a few words of wis
dom.
Recently, I have become
somewhat alarmed by certain
trends which manifested them
selves among you, the younger
generation in this country. Speci
fically, I refer to your tenden
cies toward disenchantment and
withdrawal with respect to the
establishment. Unfortunately, I
must admit that in most cases
your grievances are more than
justified.
The nature of the current
dilemna, I believe, has its roots
in that proverbial dichotomy be
tween idealism and reality. The
cornerstone of this great democ
racy has been the idealism of its
people and the ability of Ameri
cans to bridge the gap between
idealism and reality and tran
slate ideals into constructive ac
tion.
Now among you young Amer
icans there is no want of ideal
ism. But permeating the youth
culture are elements of escap
ism; young people have been un
able to reconcile their ideals
with the adopting of meaningful
output Toles within the establish
ment.
Admittedly, identifying the
correct formula for molding con
cepts into the concrete and re
solving the dichotomy is a diffi
cult proposition. There is such a
thing as too much idealism where
the possessor all but enters the
world of the spiritual while exis
ting in that of the material. For
these individuals, coping with
day-to-day responsibilities is
nearly impossible. I don’t think
this is the case with you young
men and women. For you there
is a return to normalcy and the
ability to apply your ideals to
the problems of our society and
harvest substantive results.
Your circumstances today
have arisen, not because you pos
sess excessive idealism, but be
cause you are faced with too
much reality. The key to under
standing this statement is the
word “awareness.” Because the
communications revolution has
made the world very much smal
ler, you have become conscious
of the tragic plights and prob
lems that have surfaced in
every corner of the globe. Ame-
Uoration of deplorable condi
tions in whatever realm they
exist is a gargantuan task. In
your idealism you have shoul
dered all of the world’s prob
lems and have been overwhelmed
by the complexity of the task of
effecting improvement.
In essence, you have been un
able to discern the challengeable.
Now why is this so important?
First, from my own experi
ence, it is of integral necessity
for one to come to grips with
some task in order to insure in
tellectual growth. Experiencing
happiness and freedom requires
that one meet his challenge. I
would not be as fulfilled as I
am today had I not helped put
man on the moon. On the other
hand, escapism as a philosophy
invites a condition of superflous-
ness.
Second, neither can this great
nation survive if it does not meet
the challenges which present
themselves. Without the partici
pation of you, young Americans,
this nation must surely falter;
there can be no tomorrow as you
are our lifeblood.
What 1 call for is the realiza
tion by all of you that your
idealism must be focused; some
decision must be made as to
which of your capabilities and
talents, once applied, offer the
greatest chance for making a
meaningful imprint on the ills
of this world. You must bridge
the dichotomy of your idealism
and reality.
In discerning the challenge-
a'ble, you should not aim so high
as to risk further disenchant-
ments nor so low as to gain no
self-fulfillment. By virtue of mo
bilizing your young army, most
assuredly will all the woes of this
society recede at your attack.
The key to the pursuit of your
happiness and the health of the
nation lies in your correct
choice; but, more than that, in
making the choice.
When you meet youf goal,
then challenge again. Man has
reached the moon and still many
worthwhile objectives present
themselves for me in the space
program. Never fear reaching a
plateau, for as long as there are
people, the problems of this
world will be with us, problems
whose solution will require
youthful idealism.
Remember once more, that
to discern the challengeable and
to successfully challenge is to
bring new life and dynamism
for yourselves, for your nation,
for your world; but that to never
challenge is not to have lived at
all - it is to be sterile and mori
bund. In the vernacular, young
Americans, find ways to cop in
and not out - -for your own
sake, for our sake.
Thank you and good luck.
