This is due, largely, to the wide difference between the cultural training of the religious and the mundane operations of the financial world, lt is imperative, there- fore, that laymen should be found who are capable of performing these duties with the ability so much needed for the successful operation of a large institution like Loyola University. A Thus, civic leaders in legal, industrial, and financial. circles were sought out and made members of the Presidents Council of the University. Though their work is accomplished without commensurate publicity, the duties which they carry out remain one of the most important tasks connected with the institution. On these pages are pictured most of the members of the Council. Those whose pictures are missing are the Honorable Martin H. Kennelly and Justice Philip L. Sullivan. JOHN F. CUNEO MATTHEW J.

endemic Eoumfil The purpose of the Academic Council is to achieve the unity of government necessary in running any university. It acts as the coordinating agency between the several agencies of the University. It was organized in 1928 under the presidency of Reverend Robert M. Kelley, SJ., and has since been' functioning most successfully. The Council is composed of the President, all regents, deans, and assistant deans, and the general registrar of the University. The primary duty of the Council is to act as an advisory board to the president on educational policy of the University as a whole. The group also has the task of maintain- ing the high academic standards of the University.
