TIMOTHY SWETT President JOSEPH GALLAGHER Vice-Presidenf MINA BROWN Secret ry-T reasurer Senior 6 SJ ' is tor COLUMBIAN COLLEGE The war undeniably has required modifica- tions in our schools of arts and sciences, but the academic tradition shall not be allowed to die. Many liberal arts students who were to graduate with this class have interrupted their education to enter the armed services. The faculty likewise has lost many, with the result that a less extensive curriculum has been made necessary. Nevertheless, the realization of the importance of academic study has not been lost, and these graduating arts students undoubtedly will make valuable use of this ed- ucation in their post-war careers.

Law School enrollment, not having pre- ferred status in the Selective Service, has necessarily suffered, but the addition of spe- cial war courses has kept it surprisingly high. Standards continue to be excellent, and the school is ranked with the best in the nation. The course of world events in the immediate present, perhaps emphasizes the importance of professions other than the law, but its ab- solute essentiality in an ordered civilization is unquestioned. We may count on these grad- uating lawyers to contribute largely to a suc- cessful peace.
