The Liberal Arts Creighton College and Rev. John C. Choppesky, S.J Dean The year 1871 witnessed the actual fulfilhnent of the wishes of Mrs. Mary Lucretia Creighton when just two years after her death, Creighton College was estab- lished. From that unimposing red-brick building, grew the Hilltop campus to which Creighton College ' s present 800 students have access. Through these 72 years of its growth and development, the constant quality of the education it has provided has been due to the calibre of the faculty, lay and Jesuit alike. The dean of Creighton College is the Rev. John C. Choppesky, S.J., A.M., S.T.L., who is also dean of Uni- versity College. In addition to his duties as dean of the two colleges, Father Choppesky is a member of the board of trustees and the committee on educational policies. His duties further carry him into the chairmanship of the Committee on Admissions, the Committee on Undergraduate Studies, and the University Committee on Academic Rank and Tenure. Assistant dean of Creighton College is the Rev. Ralph H. Schenk, S.J., A.M., S.T.L. Though its principles have never changed, Creighton College, like any living organization, has adapted itself to provide for the needs of its students. Beyond the sound pre-professional work for which it so well known, Creighton College offers career opportunities as varied as Journalism, Radio and Television, Teaching, Industrial Chemistry and Social Work. Its curriculum now, as when it was founded, is aimed at the education and development of the whole man and the realization of this primary end is in the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science. The record of Creighton College is not measured by statistics, but rather by the character and achievement of its students. Here, as in no other branch of a university, the student is prepared for living, in itself. Of the priceless gift of a liberal education, we can truly say: You can take it with you.
