, • ■ ' W The main goal which directs all the com- plex activities of Creighton is the development of educated Christian leaders. The president of the University, The Very Reverend Henry W. Linn, must coordinate other, more immediate goals. The essential element of coordination is good communication between and among faculty members and administrative staff. Good communication is evidenced when the various personnel know of the other ' s work and aid each other, forming a unified team; it is evidenced by an absence of misunderstanding or resentment. Such smooth operation is achieved by scheduled group meetings and by the guid- ance of the President of the University. Father Linn is an experienced liaison of those under him. Besides having taught classics and physics, he has been dean of the School of Journalism, the old Creighton University Wom- en ' s College, and the graduate school and has been vice-president for University Relations.
