ill 515 i: :t -.tt ' .: iitt ill H I I tl MYeatMr(itd A belief in Creighton ' s educational phil- osophy and principles has successfully in- duce an outstanding teacher and scholar, Dr. Arthur G. Umscheid, to remain at Creighton University for twenty-five years. Born in Muscatine, Iowa, in 1909, Dr. Um- scheid received his Bachelor of Arts degree magna cum laude in 1932 from the State University of Iowa, where he was elected mem- ber of Phi Beta Kappa. He obtained his Master ' s degree in 1933 and his Doctor ' s degree in 1935, also from the State University of Iowa. He came to Creighton in September, 1937, and has been Chairman of the Department of History and Political Science since July, 1957. His son, Leonard is currently a student in the Creighton College of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Umscheid sees Creighton students as for the most part serious students motivated by worthy ambitions and conducting themselves as true ladies and gentlemen. In the future he plans to continue giving to these students, and to the University, the best service and effort I am capable of giving. Hans F. Laos. A.M., Ph.D. Modem Languages Next year for the first time in twenty-six years the name of Dr. Hans F. Laos will not be listed in the schedule of classes behind a wide variety of German courses, for Dr. Laos is retiring from his position as Professor of Modern Languages. In his years of teaching Dr. Laos has at some time or other taught just about every course offered by the German department. His teach- ing experience also includes courses in French, Enghsh, and philosophy. For eight years he was head of the Department of Modern Lan- gues. Dr. Laos was born in Frier, Germany. He obtained his Abiturium in Germany and his Master ' s and Doctor ' s degrees from the Univer- sity of Minnesota. He has also studied at the Universities of Bonn, Berlin, and Cologne. In his years at Creighton, Dr. Laos has observed a marked improvement in the quality of students as admission standards become increasingly selective. The fact that I have stayed for twenty-six year, says Dr. Laos, speaks for itself of my opinion of Creighton students. He further attributes his contentment at Creighton to its family spirit. Retirement will not mean idleness for Dr. Laos. He is looking forward to going into pri- vate enterprise. Arthur G. Umscheid, A.M., Ph.D. Chairman Histo ry Political Science DeparlmenI 2S
