I he Faculty THE finest teachers on earth! That is the tribute paid by the world at large to that teaching organization, the Society of Jesus. Following the system of their great founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola, they have acquired, during their centuries of teaching in Catholic Colleges and Universities for boys, a reputation which none may equal. At Seattle College we have members of the Society for our teachers; a group of men who arc solid, clean and brilliant educators. YVe need add no more. The President of the College is, at present, the Very Reverend Jeffrey J. O’Shea, S. J. This is his third year as head of the College and his kindly and interesting personality has made him hundreds of friends. He has a reputation as an eloquent talker and as a philosopher, having taught for many years at Mt. St. Michael’s, the Jesuit Scholasticate. He teaches philosophy to the Junior and Sophomore classes and there it is easy to see that his reputation has been well merited. Rev. Francis J. Burke, S. J., is an oldtimcr in Seattle, this being his seventh year here. Father Burke is Prefect of Discipline, Moderator of the Senior Sodality and Moderator of Athletics. Rev. Augustus J. Coudeyre, S.
