again 90 udrzfizfn The Loyola Foundation was founded by the Alumni Association of Loyola University in 1945 to give graduates and former students of the University the opportunity to assist Loyola in carrying on the work of giving its students Catholic university training. The response to the first and subsequent calls for donations was immediate and most gratifying. The great majority of the good accomplished by the Loyola Foundation was made possible through small individual donations. The constant problem of higher education is how to make ends meet. The thousands of Loyolans acting together have eased somewhat the financial worries of University officials. Plans have already been drawn up for a campaign to secure for Loyola a substantial endowment, comparable to that enjoyed by many of the larger universities of the land. It is desired to complete this program in time for the University's centennial celebration. The drive for funds during the year 1947-1948 will- attempt to set the Medical and Dental Schools on the soundest financial footing. l Director of the Alumni Foundation is Rev. G. G. Grant, SJ., who also serves as director of the Alumni Association. Father Grant has been aided in-his work by many of the loyal alumni of Loyola. Limitations in space prevent listing their names and contributions here. There are many appeals of a deserving nature that come to the attention of the public. A university's needs will not impress the majority of Americans. But you who have received the benefits of a college education are the ones on whom universities like Loyola must count for the gifts that mean the difference between success and mediocrity in their work. With these Words Father Grant has directed his appeal to all alumni of Loyola University.

lumui Assvciafivu Closely associated with the Loyola Foundation, is the Alumni Associa- tion. Father Grant, director of the Foundation, is also the director of the Association. The purpose of the Alumni As- sociation is to keep the graduates of the University in contact with the ideals and teachings which are an integral part of Loyola. Groups from the Medical and Dental schools have been especially active, organizing in various sections of the country in order to further the pro- fessional ethics connected with their work. ' During the war years the Asso- ciation printed the Loyola Alr1mnu.r, informing the 'old grads' as to the whereabouts of their former class- mates. This publication, the only of Loyola's to function duringithe war, was one of the most welcome items at many a mail call. As the University has progressed since August of 1945, so has the Association become increasingly ac- tive in its participation in the affairs of Loyola. ALUMNI IN THE MAKING
