i m I m I I Prior to his appointment as Dean of Men, Colonel Urban E. Rohr served as Commandant of Creighton ' s ROTC Department. He said that the transition from the duties of military life to civilian life was not difficult, since dealing with young men in the service or in college is much the same. He does feel that his role of Dean of Men is more demanding and more challenging, and consequently provides much greater personal satisfaction. Col. Rohr considers his primary role to be that of making himself available to all male students, individually or collectively, for assistance. I Colonel Urban E. Rohr • Dean of Men MENTORS The Administration is here to serve the student in realizing his potential to the fullest. In the words of Mrs. Eileen Lieben this is her purpose in working with the girls at Creighton. To effectively guide and counsel the students, she must first establish communication with them; and this is, in her opinion, the challenge of her office. Few people realize the indirect services she performs in her various duties. Mrs. Eileen Lieben - Dean of Women 22

Mr. Robert Schwieso — Assistant Dean, The Rev. Thomas K. McKenney, S.J. — Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES The Rev. Thomas McKenney, S.J., Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences, works with faculty members and department heads to im- prove the academic quality of the college. A special effort began this year to strengthen the major areas of study while preserving the tradition of liberal education. The graduate must be very capable in his selected field of concentration, especially if he intends to enter graduate school, but must also be exposed to other branches of knowledge. Therefore, more hours of upper-level courses are being required in several majors ' programs. Courses of more specific content are being added to the general survey courses available. While Father McKenney encourages the faculty to effect these changes, the Assistant Dean, Robert Schwieso, is involved with the students, the beneficiaries of the changes. He assists them in programming and planning their schedules, moderates the Student Senate of the College of Arts and Sciences, plans Freshman Orientation Week, and is advisor to the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity. 24
