I A 1 ' EDICATION may include the dedi- cation to the ideal as well as the dedication to the man. Any dedication to an ideal on the Saint Mary's campus must necessarily be made to the spirit of the liberal arts college. That spirit consists. in the main, in the complete education of the whole man. It rails in an adamant way against too early specialization. Saint Mary's College has stood ever for arts and lette1's. A glance at her roster of graduates will assure one that her lawyers know something more than the law: her business men, something more than economics: her doctors. something more than medicine: her public servants. something more than politics. To possess the broad cultural back- ground, against which successful specialization is possible, is the ideal of the Saint Mary's Man. This ideal finds a counterpart in the period known as the Renaissance-a counterpart which we propose to trace in the GAEL theme. That the ideal is worthy of our sincere admiration is obvious enough. From the depths of that admiration. we dedi- cate the 1936 GAEL to the spirit of the liberal arts college.

U gi ' il ITH deep respect and ad- miration. our dedication to the man is made to Brother Claudius. To those familiar with the sons of Saint Iohn Baptist de la Salle it would suffice to qualify this dedication with the state- ment- because he is a real Christian Brother. Our continued contact with these men. who wear the funny- looking white collar. has led us to stamp them with four great qualities - religion. scholarship. humility, and Christian democ- racy. Brother Claudius is imbued with a sincere religious feeling. He is possessed of a wide and deep scholarship. He is marked by an unstudied humility. I-lnd he has. in an eminent degree. that quality which singles out all Christian Brothers-the common touch. It is not without a feeling of pride that we dedicate the 1936 GAEL to Brother Claudius. - -. fl
