Very few positions can be found in the business world that demand the talents of an administrator, an educa- tor, and a disciplinarian. This is the position of the Dean of Studies in every Jesuit College; and at Regis, this po- sition is most capably filled by the REV. LOUIS G. MATTIONE, S.J. During his years as Dean, Fr. Mat- tione has been very active and moreover very successful in raising the academic level of the College. It has been mainly through his efforts that Regis has become able to compete academically with any other college of the nation. As Father Minister of the Jesuit community, the REV. ARTHUR O. VERDIECK, S.J., fulfills one of the most important jobs connected with the operation of the college and the high school. Fr. Verdieck received a Bachelor ' s and a Master ' s degree from St. Louis Uni- versity and now in his second year as minister is also chaplain at St. Vincent ' s Home. He is the former ath- letic director of Regis High School as well as past president of the Denver Parochial League. Dean of Men at Regis for seven years, the REV. FRAN- CIS J. MALACEK, S.J., is a member of the philosophy department and faculty representative to the Student Senate. Holding degrees in the classics, philosophy, and Sacred Theology from St. Louis University, Father taught at Rockhurst College in Kansas City and was connected with the Institute of Social Order there. Ac- tive in teacher training, Father Malacek is a member of several metropolitan councils for education and research in human relations. Assistant to the Dean, professor of business administra- tion, and head of that department, MR. JOHN V. COYNE holds an A.B. in economics from the University of Notre Dame and a Master ' s degree in business ad- ministration. Previous to coming to Denver 14 years ago, Mr. Coyne taught at Santa Maria Junior College, California, and in 1956 co-authored the book, Principles of Retailing. He is former director of the evening di- vision and a former athletic director. Pase 22
