Very Reverend Edmund C. Horne, S.J. PRESIDENT WHEN the Very Reverend Edmund l-lorne, S.J., came to John Carroll University in l937, he brought with him an extraordinarily pleasing per- sonality that was powerful withal, an energetic way of doing things, and- a remarkable knowledge of Sociology, his chosen field. He was the successor of Father Benedict J. Rodman, S.J., who had directed the building of the present John Carroll. Father Horne, then, stepped into a situation that re- quired of him all the diplomacy and executive talent that he could muster. He had to face the task of selling Carroll to the city, to University Heights, to the Catholics of the Cleve- land Diocese, and that of making her educational facilities and excellencies well-known throughout Ohio and the nation. The measurer of the success of John Carroll can be gauged by the outstanding success of its present president. Throughout his many ac- tivities he has perfused a constant interest in, care for, and consideration of, the student. Indeed, he has so identified himself with the fortune and interests of the University and its students that only the highest praise can even approximately reward him, We think that we can say that our school is fortunate in many respects, but in none more than in its posses- sion of so notable a president. We of the Carillon express for the student body and faculty our pride in him. 20 TI-IE CARIIIO
