THE ACADEMIC PROCESSION The strength of any academic organi- zation depends, a great deal, on the faculty. At the University of Notre Dame the students are fortunate to have the advantage of a growing and ever im- proving faculty. Also the recent changes made in the curricula have enhanced the possession of a degree from this Uni- versity. Academic 26-67

Much before a university can perform its academic functions it must consider its finances. The budget committee of a vast organization such as the Univer- sity of Notre Dame must consider carefully all of its money matters. A university functions only when there are students to inhabit its halls and fill its classrooms. Thus, many hours of reviewing files, past grades and the many other considerations constantly fill the time of the Director of Admissions, Rev. Richard Murphy, C.S.C. The multiplicity of classes, teachers and students provide never ending problems for the Office of Academic Affairs. However, in the past two years the University has seen the affairs of this office and the manner in which the student deals with it greatly changed by the systems of Mr. Leo Corbaci, Assistant to the Vice-President.

Clubs, student government, debates, publications and even events of drama should be considered in this wide topic for all present to the different students a means of activity for the time outside of class.
