Philosophy Niagara University considers philosophy a necessary part of any university education. So the Philosophy Department spent most of its time this year imparting the rudiments of philosophical science to students from all parts of the University. But it also offered a comprehensive program for those who like philosophy enough to want more than a taste. This year it also held a series of faculty conferences to enable individual members to share the results of their research either with col- leagues in the Department or at times with other University Departments. Anything to promote discussion of philo- sophical issues. Since we do not have a Socrates on cam- pus fwho does'?j we must do the next best thing. SITTING: W. Gannon, Fr. Mun- day, M.

Religious Studies Man's nature reflects one person through many facets. Men and women think, play, Worshipg in this diversity, there is unity. The Faculty of the Religious Studies Department seeks an understanding of the total person through the dimension of man's religious ex- perience. It is our aim that the students achieve an insight into themselves as faith oriented in- dividuals through an examination of the doc- trine and practice of the Christian faith as Well as through an examination of the belief and faith experience of other religious tradi- tions. With this goal in mind, our faculty realizes its acute responsibility to maintain a vibrant academic climate through effective teaching and on-going research. SITTING: Sr. Minella, Chair- mang Fr.
