n9 Kjj. Jl»t«»lt Alt . February 23, 1954 My dear Miaa NcGulre, The year book of our De Paul University l3 principally a nemento for the graduates to keep through life and from time to time to pick up and recall their years at De Paul, These years are years of fine ideals. The De Paul student strives to fit hlnaelf better to do a single thing which is comprehensive of all worthwhile things in life and that is to love God with his whole heart and with his v;hole mind and his whole soul. All his studies, all his activities have only one ultimate meaning and that is to enable him to love God in a more- perfect way. God has planted In the person of all of ua capacities and potentialities. The right use of these capacities and potentialities gives us the real richea of life. The De Paul student understands that he is a child of God and that there are in him God-given poten- tialitlea which enrich and ennoble what is mere nature in him. He is a sen of God; he hopes one day to find his ultimate perfection in the [ieatific Vision. But he knows that the condition for his realizing what is In him In nature and grace la constantly to increase in hia love of God. He will serve his fellow man honestly and unselfishly because he Icnowa that he cannot love God without loving his neighbor in God. Never will he place mere material things as the real inapiratlona for hia life. Every little and every big thing he will do he must do becauae he lovea God. The year book therefore will be a constant reminder through life to the atudent of De Paul and it will be a challenge when fro m time to time he picks that book up and there will come to him the question — am I doing everything for the love of God. He can never complain that he has not the means becauae our Eleased Savior in His abundant love for us has given all of us the means. Never will he think that others have greater opportunities because he will know that hia responsibility is serving God with all his being. Success to be real la an Inner thing. The De Paul atudent has learned this inner thing. At times he will think of his obligation to hia Alma Mater and. when such a thought comes to him he must remember that hia Alma Mater helped him to do one thing, and that la to love God with his whole heart and with his whole mind and his whole aoul. Sincerely yours in Christ, t 0 ' . Archbishop of Chicago 17

THE UNIVERSITY COUNCIL The Council meeting goes right along . . . Since De Paul is such a large and aried university, one man alone cannot direct the motives and happenings of the college . . . Naturally the answer would lie to ha e an organization that would do this work . . . The University Council is this organization . . . Yet the student does not directly see the work they do, hut is affected by and does see the results of their planning ... Rev. Ed. J. Kammer, CM., Ph.D. Vice-President of Administration Chairman of Unisersitv Council 19
