The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, 2007, Vol. 28 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, 2007, Vol. 28
I salute Dr. Gray, your distinguished fellow alum, who is one of the most significant and honored Americans alive.
King College has honored me today with a degree. I am deeply grateful for that recognition of my commitment to both the church and the liberal arts. I liked King College the moment I set foot on its campus in 2006. Its mountains reminded me of home, and I am proud to be a King College alumnus.
Dr. Gray is the recipient of some eighty honorary degrees, so let's have no illusions over who is the most distinguished person here today. One of our trustees, in a recent conversation, said to me that there are some persons who come to an illustrious institution and say: I must be wonderful because I am here! There are others who say: Because I am here this school's reputation is going to be sustained. Dr. Gray is that latter kind of person. He always brings more than he receives. He is someone who creates a new future, not someone who basks in the warm glow of yesterday.
I ask you, the new graduates, to be that kind of person. The future will never be the same as the past, be sure of that. The glow of yesterday is a deceptive light.
