Father Cooke joined the Jesuit order in 1939 and received a masters degree in philosophy from St. Louis University in 1946. He was ordained six years later after completing his theological studies at St. Mary’s College, Kansas. He did advanced work in theology at Muenster, Westphalia. Germany, and attended the Institut Catholique in Paris from 1954 to 1956 when he received the doctorate in sacred theology. He joined the faculty here in the spring of 1957. Six months later he became head of the department. Father Cooke is simply a man, a priest, a scholar and an educator who gives unselfishly of himself. Not so simple.

Welcome! 25 A week of parties, tests, picnics, receptions, dances, lectures, and meetings annually greets new Marquette students. This first week. Welcome Week, is arranged by the all-University Welcome Week Council. A small lire in the Union grill and a temporary lack of dormitory space were two “unexpccteds” in this year's activity. Making new friends, discovering that “we have much in common” and feeling that “this is it” were as usual. On Wednesday came registration, an annual freshman bewilderment. Armed with bits of advice from upperclassmen, the freshmen trudged to the gym. After an hour or two or three walking around the gym, many thought that registering was more difficult than applying for admission to Marquette. They realized the value of an IBM card after lines, check tables, an ID picture booth, a cashier, and a “permit” slip.
