THE XAVERIAN NEWS Master of Commercial Science It was not until 1918 that the doors of any department of St. Xavier were opened to women. In that year a policy of co-education was announced in the School of Commerce and Sociology. The 'response to the announcement was immediate and gratifying; and from the beginning the co-eds have them- selves proved the wisdom and practicability of the policy by their leadership in student activities and their consistent ap- plication in the class-romil. In 1921 four young ladies were granted the first de- grees ever bestowed by the institution on Lay women. Among them was Florence Albers. the very popular Miss whose picture appears on the bpposite page. Not content with her excellent record in studies and student activities, which latter included the presi- dency of the Senior class. she returned to College last Sep- tember and assumed a schedule that entitles her to still an- other unusual honor. in the form of the degree of Master of Commercial Science: The fact that the Master degree in this school is earned and taken for the first time by a woman reflects honor not only upon the recipient, but also upon the entire eco-ed student body. And if the statement were not self-inclusive, we might say that Miss Albers' record is a shining mark for the men to shoot at. At any rate, We're fair enough to hope that her un- paralleled efforts may meet with the reward they so richly deserve.
