JOHN C. MCHUGH Registrar Just as life is more important than a livelihood, those subjects of a college curriculum Which enable us to enjoy the fullness of life are of much more importance to us than those Which merely fit us for a living. Our forefathers for centuries knew this fact. In building a center of learning, they gave first place to the College of Liberal Arts, and around it they grouped those de- voted to professional studies. Our topsy-turvy age has seen ht to re- verse this order ordained by logic and common sense. A Liberal Arts training in some quarters no longer means a familiarity With the class- ical languages, or a comprehensive grasp of the Queen of Sciences, Philosophy. Yet could any age less afford to reject the admirable synthesis of living Which centuries of hard thought have evolved for us, and Which are ours almost for the asking? De Paul University is among the comparatively few schools Which have yet to be per- suaded that a communion With the roots of our civilization through the media of literature and philo- sophy, is no longer desirable.
