If when thumbing through the pages he is able to relive a few moments of his years at Loyola, then this book will have achieved its purpose. We, the staff of the 1965 LAIR, hope to present to you an accurate pictorial com- mentary of Loyola University in her hftieth year.

Loyola University of Los Angeles celebrates this year its fiftieth anniversary as an institution of higher learning. When we look to the simple beginnings of Loyola University, we glean some idea of the progress that has been made. When we compare what communi- cations were like at the time Loyola began with the field of communi- cations, today we cannot but be awed at the vast changes and the wonderful progress in the field. In the midst of this profound de- velopment it is significant to note that the Los Angeles area has become one of the truly great centers of the United States in the area of mass media of communications. Now as Loyola University of Los Angeles marks its fiftieth year, it is also entering upon educational work in the field of com- munications. Obviously it is no accident that Loyola, situated as it is in Los Angeles, is embarking on this new educational venture. A splendid new facility-the Foley Communications Arts Center and Strub Memorial Little Theatre-provides the physical setting for the work. It is now our task to develop outstanding programs in the various mass media of communications. Quite appropriately, then, this year's edition of The Lair calls attention to developments in communication arts. Charles S. Casassa, SJ. President Loyola University of Los Angeles Very Reverend Charles S. Casassa, SJ. Dedication The Very Reverend Charles Casassa was born Sept. 23, 1910, in San Francisco California. He was graduated from Gon- zaga University in 1955 where he obtained his M.A., and in 1939 secured his S.T.L. at Alma College. He was conferred a doctor at the University of Toronto and the Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies in Toronto in 1946. Ordained to the priesthood in the Society of jesus in 1938, Fr. Casassa taught in the Philosophy Department from 1939 to 1941, and after his Canadian studies returned to Loyola to become president of the then small University on Feb. 2, 1949. One need not expound verbally on Loyola's phenominal growth since that date. A cursory glance at the present campus is indication enough of Fr. Casassa's leadership and dedicated service to the University. The completed buildings of Project 70 stand in praise and mute testimony to the work Fr. President has put in to make Loyola today a major center of Jesuit education in the U.S. Fr. Casassa is extremely active innreligious and civic affairs and is noted for his activities against discrimination since his arrival at Loyola. He has been cited for Distinguished Citizenship by Los Angeles County, and has received merit for fostering goodwill and understanding among religious and racial groups in the Los Angeles area. Fr, President received a Resolution by the State Assembly commemorating his iiifteenth year as President in 1964, that same year receiving an honorary degree from the University of Judaism. It is to this truly outstanding man and priest that we dedicate the 1965 Lair.
