TICDN Why AND PEACE dx f-iris ' : N ,K i gd . g mv ,X gg To assure a matriculate of the possibility of completing his undergrad- uate career before reaching the age of compulsory military service, Saint lose'ph's offers an accelerated program through which the regular four-year college curriculum can be completed in three calendar years, through six regular semesters and two summer sessions. The' basic skeleton course of Religion, English, and Philosophy is maintained: Religion to provide the abil- ity to view all relations under the aspect of eternity, English to furnish the indispensable medium for intelligible and forceful expression of ideas and an acquaintance with the inestimable treasures that are the heritage of Mother-tongueg Philosophy to give the bases for all other scientific and cul- tural endeavors and to correlate all human wisdoms. ln the accelerated pro- gram, emphasis will be placed on physical education and physical fitness. A program of physical exercises and of intramural sports activities, includ- ing as much of the aspect of military training as is feasible, in which all stu- dents participate is offered, so that when the call to duty comes none' will be found wanting. For winning of the Peace, a task more difficult than the winning of the war itself, leaders will be necessary who are well-versed in the basic princi- ples of Christianity, who have a deep knowledge of eternal truths, and who are possessed of an unshakable sense of true values. The world must be won for Christ, nolasting universal peace will be possible except it be founded upon the Christian principles of basic justice, charity, and liberty for all. The anti-social, the anti-democratic, the anti-Christian background and princi- ples of the forces which have involved the entire world in bitter death- struggle must be met and vanquished in the intellectual arena just as their armies must be met and conquered on the bloody battlefield. To the pur- pose of developing youth into men of physical vigor, of sound scholarship, of fine spiritual outlookg into loyal Christians and loyal Citizens, Saint loseph's is irrevocably dedicated.
