AS WE BEGIN OUR PRODUCTION WORK ON THE LOGOS, we hear remarks on all sides concerning the decade we are entering. We hear if fefeffed td as The FABULOUS SIXTIES, The SOARING SlXTIES and even the echoes of forty years 890, The ROARING SlXTlES. All these mysterious sounds make us sit back and think. What do we think about? Quite naturally, about the decade we are entering. The next ten years may be the most exciting in mankind's long adventure on earth. At long last we are about to begin the exploration of the mys- terious universe that surrounds our planet. Ten years from now life on earth may have been trans- formed by human intelligence and 'ingenuity into something better than man has ever known. The reverse could also be true, but we like to be op- timistic. The year 1960 itself will be one of change, of transition in business, politics, and world affairs. Before 1960 has ended, voters will have chosen a new President of our country, a new Congress, and many new State Administrations. And what of education? According to a recent survey, more than fifty percent of the nation re- gard education as more important than hard work in achieving success in life. The American of 1960 has more educatio'n than the American of 1950. Even greater is the growth in education iust ahead. The same study shows that there are about 4 mil- lion Americans in college today as compared with 2.5 million ten years ago. What the study does not show, however, is whether the' quality of education in the SIXTIES will be superior to that of the past decades. This is where we should be deeply concerned. As stu- dents in a Catholic college, are we concerned with the very highest type of education or are we iust relaxed, unadventurous, completely satisfied with our way of life, and blandly optimistic about d with world peace the future? Are we concerne V , with the spread of Christ's Kingdom on earth with honesty, honor, and all the other outcomes of a truly Catholic education? Asweenterthe FABULOUS SIXTIES, we find we have much to think about. 2
