 CENTER OF THE UNIVERSITY Reconversion at Marquette is becoming an accomplished fact under the skillful guidance of its president, Father Peter A. Brooks, S.J., and the Board of Governors. Marquette administrators foresaw the terrific demand for postwar education that caused registration to reach a new high of over 5300 students and quietly took the necessary steps to make the university's facilities available to knowledge-hungry veterans. July will mark the formal end of the campus military era that saw hundreds of soldiers and sailors enrolled at Marquette obtaining an education that would speed victory. Now the University's efforts arc being directed toward helping the students understand and maintain the peace. Most of its units will mark this return to normalcy by returning to the two semester a year routine. The navy will revert to its peacetime ROTC status.
