Every La Salle student knows him as the cigar-smoking Christian Brother who directs student pre-registration, but few realize the impact that Brother John Owens has on their four years at La Salle. Brother Owens, as director of the Roster Office, is the behind- the-scenes personage who is responsible for rostering classes and the scheduling of final exams. A native Philadelphian born on November 19, 1917, Brother John is the oldest of his family of six sisters and one brother. Raised during the depression, he notes that it was a time where one had no work and no time for extracurricular activities. Brother John graduated from Roman Catholic High School in 1934. During his high school years. Brother John became interest- ed in La Salle. He became a Christian Broth- er in September 1936, and subsequently graduated from La Salle in 1941 with a de- gree in accounting. Before obtaining his de- gree, however. Brother John commenced teaching social studies and business courses at West Catholic High School. At West Catholic he went on to become Disciplinar- ian, Vice-Principal, and finally Principal of the school, a position Brother John held from 1954 until 1963. In 1963 Brother John returned to La Salle, where he was appointed Dean of Men. (La Salle was an all-male college at this time.) This position would correlate to that now held by the Director of Student Life. After five years as Dean of Men, Brother John became the full-time Roster Director. In January, along with the staff of the Ros- ter Office, Brother John begins the task of preparing the class roster for the next fall semester. Most of this work is done by hand, rather than by computer. Brother John is also responsible for recording exam results and resolving student conflicts in taking exams. Although Brother John is 67 years old, he has no plans to retire at the present time. He is truly an administrator dedicated to La Salle and its students. It is with great pride and admiration that the 1985 Explorer is dedi- cated to one who cares so much.
