Theology and Philosophy Right Reverend Monsignor John Very Reverend Paul F. Schreiber Zenner Q elk: UEIGAICA Right Reverend Monsignor Aloysius J. Felling di- rects the program of Division One-Theology and Philosophy. The entire program of studies is based upon the idea that education must provide for the develop- ment of the whole man.

This in turn leads to an appreciation of the dignity of the human being and the necessity of rational norms applied to what- ever problems beset man. Reverend GeOrge Mueller Preston Knodell, M.A., instructor in philosophy
