CAMPUS INCE ground was first broken in l928 for the buildings now gracing Loyola's Del Rey site, de- velopment has gone on apace with the progress of years. At present five struc- tures form the nucleus of a fondly en- visioned greater Loyola. The administration building on the extreme northwest sector of the grounds has always had a multiple existence. It serves as the home of the executive offices of the university, as an infirmary building, as a dormitory for both faculty and boarding students, and also houses several special ref- erence departments of the Del Rey library. In the West wing are the chapels and refectories. The faculty and student chapel is appended to the administration build- E HEFIEWHBBEH 2512312231323

V. Rev. Charles A. McQuillan, S.I. President of the University PRESIDENTS MESSAGE T0 Tl-IE CLASS OF 1941: lt is a common apprehension in our present state of world and national affairs that life in the years ahead of us will not be easy. Many factors are adduced as evidence of this uncomfort- ing outlook such as the possibility of a new political order throughout the world, a drastically changed system of economics, a realignment of society. A change is very likely before us, a different era from that which we have experienced, may even- tuate. But it is prudent for us to remember that though the structure of human society may take on new form, human nature and human beings will continue substantially as they are and as we know them to be from our knowledge of the human race. With this in mind we can face a possible new order of things, realizing that the true values of life which have brought happi- ness and successful living up to now, will still gain the day in the world of tomorrow. Greater initiative may be required in the future, more alertness and more reliability-the path to a happy life. Yet these qualities have in the past effectively con- tributed to the material happiness of many. Civilized society cannot be successfully established without hard work and thrifti- ness on the part of most of its members. ln the era we anticipate, we can be sure that industrious application to our chosen tasks, that honest acquisition and prudent enjoyment of this world's goods, will bring the contentment and comfort that each one seeks. Above all, religion and the service of Almighty God will hold us steadfast then as now to the fact that this world is not entirely a place of changing physical events, but a setting in which we work out our spiritual eternal destiny. C. A. MCQUILLAN, SJ. President

CAMPUS ing and fittingly enjoys a centrally lo- cated spot on the campus. Religion in classroom theory and in practical de- votion having always been focal in the scheme of Catholic and, specifically, Iesuit education, ideas and ideals pro- pounded in the more academic circles are here ironed out, concretized, forti- fied in the quiet of prayer and medita- tion before the tabernacle. The university's Del Rey library is the focal point of a different type of student activity, secondary but none- theless important. Competently han- dled, this particular unit has as a direct result of studious selection in the matter of volumes acquired more than kept in step with Loyola's unmistakable aca- demic and numerical advancement.
