- Dr. Lee A. DuBridge, the president of Caltech, warned graduates about the importance of winning the ideological battle against Soviet Communism to preserve freedom. He emphasized the need for intellectual freedom and opposed Communist methods of dictating opinions. He criticized the idea of Soviet "peoples democracy" as economic slavery. DuBridge highlighted the importance of education in preparing minds to face challenges with courage. The ceremony also included calls for building world citizens and prioritizing global needs over selfish nationalism.
