PI [[c«t I g.I.fi T.;»»T abT T iSUT.a T JtOTW »»T.iy»T« S !f T [ja] College of Arts and Sciences ' REV. JOSEPH C. FLYNN, S. J. T ean HE close of this scholastic term marks the end of the fifty-first year of continuous service of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. It would be a hazard to indulge in a re- trospect of those years. To do so would draw a merited complaint from many an Alumnus who could justly instance more than one important omission. Rather, let us accept the glorious herit- age, and possessed of its spirit, look to the future for a larger expansion of the herit- age with its privileges and its prestige. Fifty years ago, the esteemed Founders, Edward and Mary, John and Emily Creighton, planned that the students of the College should be recruited from all ranks of society. The students came. And who will not say that through these students, Creighton established itself as a potent factor in the development of the West. Then, and in the succeeding years, it invited the sons of the pioneers to the uplands of learning and the pride in its achievement is surely pardonable. The bachelors ' degree is no longer an adequate testimony of completed work. By it the lower levels of scholarship have been attained, but the heights are calling to the ambitious. Graduate study with its specialization and research beckons the under- graduate onward and upward. The sons of Creighton must become the leaders of American thought and the directors of the Greater America. They must contribute their share to raise the intelligence of the people, produce a few of the great leaders of tomorrow and add their quota to the sum of human knowledge. Rev. Joseph C. Flynn, S.
