PAT HINGLE DOCTOR OF HUMANITIES
Nationally known for his artistic achievem e nt s as a pr o fe ssional actor on Broadway, in numerous films and t e le vi s ion p ro du c tions, Pat Hingle has brought a sense of honesty, creativit y , di sc i p lin e a nd integrity to his work that has made him one of th e m ost hi ghl y res pected figures in American theatre.

For his many and varied contributions to the American theatre, film and TV, for his interest and support of Otterbein College Theatre activities and students, and for his interest in promoting the essential goodness that he believes is the spirit of American, Otterbein College is proud to bestow the Degree of Doctor of Humanities on Pat Hingle.
DR. JOHN RUSKIN HOWE, JR . DOCTOR OF HUMANE LETTERS
A scholar and a leader as an undergraduate, Dr . John Ruskin Howe, Jr., '57, has continued to display these qualities in academic circles in later Iife.
At Otterbein College he was president of four organizations and a member of three honoraries . A happy combination of scholarship and leadership led to his selection as the college ' s first Woodrow Wilson Fellow.
Like his father, a former president of the college, he chose Yale University as the institution in which to undertake his graduate work. There he earned an M.A. degree in 1959 and a Ph.D. degree in 1963. He specialized in American history.
His teaching career began in 1962 when he was appointed an instructor at Princeton University. Three years later he joined the faculty of the University of Minnesota as an assistant professor. At the present time he is an associate professor and associate Dean for the Social Studies in the College of Liberal Arts. At other times in the Department of History he h a s been Director of Undergraduate and of Graduate Studies.
Interested in writing, he has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship and a research grant by the American Philosophical Society. The University of Minnesota awarded him a faculty research fellowship to enable him to spend a year in research at the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History at Harvard University
Since the publication of his dissertation in 1969, entitled The Changing Political Thought of John Adams, he has edited The Role of Ideology in the American Revolution and written From the Revolution Through the Age of Jackson From his facile pen also has come a stream of articles in historical magazines and encyclopedias and book reviews.
Active in professional organizations, he has presented papers and acted as a commentator in sessions of the two leading historical associations in the nation : the Organization of American Historians and the American Historical Association.
Married to an Otterbein graduate, Judith Jenkins, '58, and with a family of two children , Susan and David, he is a resident of St. Paul, Minnesota.

THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON
TO THE 1974 COLLEGE GRADUATES:
As graduates of America's colleges, you cross the important threshold from the classroom of academic learning to the other and equally exhilarating classroom of working experience. The world that awaits your skills and welcomes the useful knowledge you have acquired throughout your course of study is one of infinite challenge and excitement. It is a restless world, impatient to right past wrongs and ready to witness the realization of yesterday's dreams.
The focus of education in our country has been more than ever adapted to the practical realities with which you will have to cope. I know that the knowledge you have assimilated and the insights you have gained into many of the major problems we face bode well for the America of the future. But more than this, I am confident of your spirit of involvement and your selfless desire to serve your fellowman. These are the qualities that will best guide you as you put to use for yourselves and for our nation the educational opportunities you have shared in throughout your college years.
As you go forth each in your chosen endeavor, I can think of no words that better capture the thought that I want to leave with you than those of Woodrow Wilson:
"The day of our country's life is still but in its fresh morning. Let us lift our eyes to the great tracts of life yet to be conquered in the interests of righteous peace. Come, let us renew our allegiance to America, conserve her strength in its purity, make her chief among those who serve mankind •.. "

OTTERBEIN LOVE SONG
In a quiet peaceful village, there is one we love so true, She ever gives a welcome to her friends both old and new. She stands serene 'mid tree tops green, She's our dear Otterbein.
(Chorus)
Old Otterbein our college, we sing of thee today; Our memories round thee linger, in a sweet and mystic way. 0 Otterbein, we love thee, our hearts are only thine, We pledge anew, we will be true, dear Otterbein.
