Class of 2010 Graduates participate in the “turning of the tassel” ceremony. 6 Truman Review
A view from the platform at Stokes Stadium. More than 1,100 undergraduate and graduate students participated in Spring Commencement on May 8 in Stokes Stadium. Former University President Charles J. McClain delivered the commencement address and was presented with an honorary doctor of humane letters. In his speech, McClain encouraged the graduates to find work that fits their passion. “To be excellent in your work you must match your work with your passion, otherwise you will be threshing around trying to carve satisfaction out of dissatisfaction,” said McClain. “Find what you love to do and go for it!” Spring valedictorians posed on the Quadrangle with the statue of Joseph Baldwin, founder of the University. McClain has been called a higher-education legend in the state of Missouri. His presidency at the University spanned nearly 20 years, from 1970 to 1989, and his vision and leadership helped the school refocus its mission, transforming it into Missouri’s only highly selective, public liberal arts and sciences university. After he retired from the University, Truman’s administrative building was re-named in honor of McClain. Left: Former University President Charles J.
