h VERY REVEREND THOMAS F. LEVAN, CM. President o] the University Ph.D., D.D. THE very embodiment of that progressive spirit which has characterized De Paul, the Very Rev. Father Levan has illumined the path which the school follows. It is due to his sharp acumen that the expan- sion of our school was affected. His immense program, involving many complex problems has been carried on by an ideal policy and foresight. With absolute faith he meets the new demands so concom- itant to the program of expansion. In his effective leadership, we have a scintillating example whom all students without exception are eager and proud to emulate. De Paul IS a fine and characteristic expression of the progressive spirit and attitude of a large University and Father Levan has candidly faced the possibility that ways may he devised for an incessant schedule of further improvements. This indeed is a record to be proud of having achieved and De Paul will long remember Father Levan and his great devotion to De Paul University and its idealistic aspirations. Page 19
