practice many admirable changes. Situations such as investigating the question of retire' ment insurance for faculty members exemplif lies what the Council aims to achieve. Probably the most important work under' taken by this group of men is the preparaf tion and the writing of a constitution for the University. A document never before writ' ten, this constitution will outline various aims and purposes, as well as various rights. which belong to each division of the University. Included in this preparatory work are two other documents: the Functions of Adminisf trative Cflicers of Loyola University, which specifically outlines the duties and obligations which these officers take over: and secondly, a paper which outlines the functions, juris' diction, and purposes of the Llniversity's standing committees. Many of the faculty members are engaged in extrafcurricular activities, such as research and writing on their specialized subject. The Council has come to the realization that this work should be watched and encouraged. A plan, already in effect, has been evolved whereby this work done by the faculty shall be collected and filed for publication or fur' ther study. Connected with this project is the gathering together of all publication data, addresses of students, and other important historical material. Preparations have been made, as another point in the reconstruction program, to es' tablish an academic senate. This will be an advisory group composed of faculty members, professors, associate professors, and their asf sistants. The purpose of the senate will be to bring into closer contact the president of the University and the faculty. . lt YP i..4gQp-ming.
