College of Liberal Arts ' AQ? REV. WILLIAM S. SCANDLON, C.S.C., A.M. Dean of Liberal Arts Requiescct in Pace Father Scandlon died Tuesday morning, llflarch 27, 1951 in the Notre Dame infirmary. His death was a personal loss to the Community of Holy Cross, alumni, students and friends of the University. His hold and influence on each of us was well expressed by one of his community writing in a Religious Bulletin shortly before his final illness . . .these graduates would tell you of a man whose every instinct was one of reasonableness, a man in whom considerateness was to be found at its fullest and richest, and one whose sympathetic kindheartedness sweet- ened the relations between his school and any one who ever was privileged to do business with him. Father Scandlon was ordained in 1934 and the following year came to Portland as an instructor in religion. During the next twelve years he served as a regent and Dean of Studies at the College of Nursing, and was the first diocesan director of parochial grade and high schools. In 1946 he was transferred to Wilkes-Barre, Penna., as first vice-president of the Holy Cross' newly established Christ the King Col- lege. In 1949, be was again transferred, this time to Notre Dame where he taught for one year prior to returning to Portland in the late summer of 1950 to serve as vice-presi- dent and Dean of Liberal Arts. 15
