THE RT. REV. MSGR. JUSTIN A. DRISCOLL, Ph.D. President THE MOST REVEREND JAMES J. BYRNE, S.T.D. Archbishop of Dubuque Chancellor To the Community of Loras College: Pursuit of educational excellence today requires advancement in academic affairs along with involvement in a certain amount of social awareness and activity. If Lorasmen are to develop sensitivity to the needs of others, it is as essential for them to depend °n one another for growth as it is for them to be independent in acquiring the rich benefits of the resources of the College One of the best measures of the worth of a college is its finished product, its alumni. The value of an institution is not measured solely, however, by the social prestige and financial achievement of the alumni; far more important is the measure of the active involvement of that alumni in build¬ ing a world of justice and peace. Throughout the 69-’70 school year, Lorasmen have been faced with nationwide problems which they have met in a spirit of dialogue and understanding. Bv these challengss Lorasmen have grown, and 1 trust they w ill continue to grow in the decade to come. hor the Class of 1970, for the alumni, and for all who are affiliated with Loras College, 1 fer¬ vently pray that each one will respond wholeheartedly to the challenge of the seventies—to work foi a world of justice and peace. In Christ, Msgr. Justin A. Driscoll, Ph.D. President L
