President Broadcasts

President Hopkins' opening address, "Change is Opportunity," attracted such attention as a significant message to youth of college age that the Columbia Public Affairs Institute requested Mr. Hopkins to broadcast an adaptation of it over a 100- station network of the Columbia Broadcasting System, October 1. The address was broadcast from the studios of station WNAC in the Buckminster Hotel in Boston, original plans for broadcasting from the President's study in Hanover having been discarded on account of the lack of available facilities at the time. President Hopkins was introduced by Frederick William Wile, who conducts the Public Affairs Institute, speaking from the studio in Chicago. The radio adaptation of the convocation address occupied 25 minutes.
