Never in the his- tory of the college has a president been faced with such a tremend- ous task as falls upon the shoulders of our present rector. Since taking the office of President in 193 8, Father Dirksen has seen the College expand in physical size with the immense build- ing program and has done much to raise St. Joseph's College to a high position among Catholic boarding educational institutions. Just what effect the national emergency may have on the future of the College is undetermined, but with Father Dirksen,s past record as a criterion, his effort of guiding the College through the crisis will bring St. Joseph's to a promising future.
