The Student Activities Program is supervised by a Faculty Committee on Student Activities and the Student Council, and operates under the Office of the Director of Student Activities. The officers of each club are elected by members of the club and assisted in their duties by a qualified faculty moderator.

HUMANITIES Reverend Brother Camillus, O.S.F., Ph.D. Chairman Professor of Modern Lan¬ guages . . . chairman of the Humanities Division . . . moderator of the Senior Class, Humanities Club, and Semper Fi Club . . . earned B.S. at Saint John’s University, M.A. at Fordham Univer¬ sity, and Ph.D. at Colum¬ bia University. The Division of Humanities seeks to instill in the student an appreciation of the creative as¬ pect of man’s life and to develop his ability to interpret these creative acts as reflecting the infinite beauty and wisdom of God. This is best achieved by developing good taste through a knowledge of man’s thoughts and ideas as expressed in his language, literature, music and art. The Division has attempted to give greater opportunity for the creative expression of its students by allowing English majors to do an original project for graduation in place of the usual comprehensive examina¬ tion. Further, it can proudly boast of being the Division from which the two winners of the coveted National Woodrow Wilson Fellowships have come in the past few years.
