I will try not to be too emotional, but like it or not, one of the most important stages of our lives is already over. We are all looking forward to applying the education we have received into real world situations but, at the same time, something blocks our throats when we look at all the great friends we have made and the family spirit was all shared during our three years together.
We will always remember those Stats tests with results that were always the same, studying or not, the Carnivals where we discovered hidden talents and the physical limits of our bodies, the parties 鈥� the ones we can remember, some boring teachers 鈥� not mentioning any names, the challenging course, etc鈥�
I am proud to say that the M.U.S. actively contributed to some of the highlights or our university life and constantly tried to improve its activities to suit your extra-curricular needs. This year, with its new Handbook, the 鈥渂ilinguilization鈥� of its activities, its new constitution, the expansion of its relationships with other business schools across the country, and the establishment of a strong and effective basis to deal with academic matters. Not to forget all the traditional events such as the Carnival, the Achievement Awards Luncheon, the Banquet, the Cancer Auction, the M.U.S. has reached a participation level never attained before.
When you are going to be thinking about the M.U.S., do not only think about the executive but also of the clubs, publications, committees and people that worked in the background whom without them, this year would have never been as successful On behalf of the M.U.S., thanks to all of you.
I sincerely wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors hoping that your stay at 捆绑SM社区 will not only have made better people out of you, but people more conscious of the key role they have to play to better our society.

DEAN MESSAGE TO GRADUATING CLASS
This must be a time of mixed emotions for the class of 1989. There is the excitement of moving on to new jobs, new responsibilities or perhaps another university program for which you have been preparing yourself. There is also some sadness at leaving one of Canada鈥檚 great educational institution [sic] and the close friendships you have made with other students and staff members. You should know that our faculty members share many of these feelings with you. We are delighted at the success of our graduates in their careers in business and government but at the same time we are always a little sad to say goodbye to the members of the 捆绑SM社区 family who are leaving us.
You have successfully completed a heavy and rigorous program. You have been exposed to a wide range of new quantitative methods, to the role of computers in decision-making and to the many complexities of individual and organizational behavior. You also had a chance to apply this knowledge in class discussions, in case studies and for some of you, in actual business situation. I am confident that the concepts and skills you have acquired here will serve you well in your future management career.
I hope you will give some thought to the following two suggestions. First, you should remember that in this world of enormous technological change, continuing expansion of knowledge of how people in business operate and increasing international competition, it is absolutely essential that you keep up to date and informed in your area of profesional [sic] competence.
Second, you should be aware that even the world鈥檚 best management education does not guarantee success in business or government. Entrepreneurs, managers in large corporations and senior government administrators all make the same point to me. To a very large extent the success of an individual is determined by their level of motivation and their willingness to work hard. You all have these qualities in some measure to have been admitted to and have graduated from our programs. You can now expect the pace to increase.
The Faculty has attempted to expand our horizons during the years you have spent with us. We will be proud to act as your home base for the development of your skills in the future. We hope you keep in close touch with us through your Alumni organization and on an individual bases.
I wish you the best of luck for the future.
