Horry S. Johnston Chairman Charles L. Coughlin Leo T. Crowley Victor McCormick Very Rev. Edward J. O'Donnell, SJ. For the past two years Marquette has liad the title of “the largest Catholic university in the United States. This year registration figures soared above the 10,000 mark for the first time in the University's history, and no slowing-up is expected during the next five years. This situation gives rise to many problems, such as a need for increased housing and classroom facilities and additional faculty members. During the past year the Board of Governors has been hard at work developing feasible solutions to these and other administrative problems. The Board's membership consists of eight local and state businessmen who serve in an advisory capacity to Marquette administrators. Marry S. Johnston, retired president of the Robert A. Johnston Co., is chairman. Through this community-university relationship much progress has been made in expanded facilities and in placing the aims and needs of the University before the citizens of Milwaukee. Since 1951, under the direction of the Board of Governors. Marquette has added five new buildings—O’Donnell Hall, Memorial Library, Robert A. Johnston College of Business Administration. Brooks Memorial Union and the new men’s dormitory—as well as the Eben J. Care)1 Memorial medical-dental addition and the Dental School wing, now nearing completion. This has all been the result of careful planning, hard work and patience on the part of board members and University administrators.
