REV. LOUIS C. RUDOLPH, S.J. President REV. JOHN P. O ' CONNELL, S.J. Vice-President tenure at the School, he has seen the Law College, the College of Engineering and the Pre-Medical department gain the sanc- tion of the leading accrediting associations in their respective fields. Rev. Edward J. Zeman, Treasurer, is a new member of the institution ' s executive board, but the guiet and efficient manner in which he has discharged his duties has already merited him the praise of the stu- dents and parents to whom financial mat- ters are of prime importance. Content to remain behind the scenes, Rev. James H. Strehl, S.J., Minister, is typical of those men at the University who satisfac- torily perform their necessary duties in school administration unrecognized by the majority of individuals. Officially called Curator of the Museums, Rev. George A. Gilbert, S.J., Supervisor of the Grounds, has won the unanimous plaudits of students and visitors not only for constantly improving the museums of the University, but also for his untiring work in making the Mission campus one of the beautiful spots of the West. With such stimulating surroundings it is little wonder that Santa Clara students take pride in ex- hibiting their campus to their parents, relatives and friends. With the assistance of head gardener Robert Coward, Father Gilbert has spared no effort to add to the beauty and usefulness of the grounds. Recognizing these facts, serious-minded Santa Clarans regard with admiration the workman-like and efficient administration of the executive faculty of the University. Fortunate are they who take the utmost advantage of the unselfish work of those in charge. THE REDWOOD • 1939 Page Eleven

THE ADMINISTRATION REV. EDWARD J. ZEMAN, S.J. Treasurer REV. WILLIAM C. GIANERA, S.J. Dean of the Faculties REV. JAMES H. STREHL, S.J. Minister REV. GEORGE A. GILBERT, S.J. Curator of Museums Santa Clara, oldest college in the West, embodies the happy medium between its characteristic traditions and the necessity of keeping up with the times. Steeped in the ideas and ideals of the great Catholic educators of past days, the Uni- versity nevertheless has been far from re- luctant to accept new and approved trends in matters both educational and adminis- trative. Rev. Louis C. Rudolph, S.J., Presi- dent of Santa Clara, has guided the des- tinies of the Mission School accordingly. With a keen understanding of the various executive problems that beset the author- ities of a university, Father Rudolph has judiciously selected men who can capa- bly fill the demands occasioned by their positions. In charge of disciplinary matters, Rev. J. P. O ' Connell, S.J., Vice-President of Santa Clara, has efficiently handled a post which often necessitates long work and careful judgments. As Moderator of the Passion Play he proved an excellent administrator for Santa Clara ' s most famed dramatic pro- duction. Liked and respected for his unceasing ef- forts to maintain a high scholastic standard in the University, Rev. W. C. Gianera, S.J., Dean of the Faculties, is one of the main factors in keeping Santa Clara ' s scholastic reguirements on a level with any Uni- versity in the United States.
