On May h 1912, work was started on a new building for the Professed and the Novices of the order. It is a memorial to Bernard Corr. Father Delian was succeeded in 1917 by one whose name had been joined with Villanova's progress many years. Father Dean did not come to us a stranger. Since 189.’}. with the exception of three years, he has been continually associated with the College in one capacity or another. He has been Professor, Prefect of Studies, and Dean of the School of Technology. His ability as an orator, his attainments in the field of science and mathe- matics, his business ability and his understanding of boys, made his admin- istration a decided success. Toward the end of the year 1920, Father Dean suffered a physical collapse and was forced to tender his resignation as President. The follow- ing September Fr. Francis A Driscoll, who for seven years had been identi- fied with Villanova's work in the capacity of Vice-President succeeded Father Dean as President. During his administration Villanova has broadened and intensified her courses. The Engineering S.'hool has introduced all the various branches. A School of Business Administration has been inaugurated. The Pre- Medical Course has added another year, and the College has been placed on the list of Colleges approved bv the Association of Colleges and Univer- sities of the Middle States and Maryland.
