His Excellency, The Most Reverend Henry P. Rohiman, D,D. Archbishop of Dubuque and Chancellor of Loras College Hrs Excellency, The Most Reverend Leo Binz, D, D, Coadjutor to the Archbishop of Dubuque The Administration Till we have discovered some intellectual daguerreotype , which takes off the course of thought, and the form , lineaments, and features of truth as completely and minutely } as the optical instrument reproduces the sen¬ sible object , we must come to the teachers of wisdom to learn wisdom , we must repair to the fountain and drink there T fohn Ilenry Cardinal Newman What is a University Yon may ask, “What is a college education? A college education is many things to many people —a chance to improve intellectual powers, a chance to improve one ' s earning power and social position, or to some, a chance to develop highly specific knowledge in scien¬ tific or liberal fields. This college education may be many tilings to many people but a Catholic college training should be one thing to all who are fortunate enough to possess it. This Catholic training should be the universal medium of expression through which men can gather and understand, unite and forcefully direct actions which are caleuluted to bring some 1 measure of relief to fellow men in positions less fortunate than their own. i

His Excellency The Most Reverend Loras T Lane, D.D., J.C.D. President of Loras College and Faculty It is certainly not the mere accumulation of bits of information; rather it is more in the development in the mind of the student of a particular set of attitudes and aptitudes. Among these would be certain established principles as well as an inclination towards investigation of the new. Thus the educated mind is both positive and critical. Further it is both traditional¬ ist ie and progressive in that it will be both aware of the heritage of the past and alive to the challenge of the 1 future.

And it is to these men of the faculty that this task has fallen. They are men of learning, men dedicated in the Christian tradition. They are our friends and our mentors. Thev are. in tine, men alive to the Loras challenge seven
