by Jim King and Louis Rukavina

Arts and Letters' 17 departments and Commerce's four are today pretty much what they were 25 years ago. Both colleges have held on to basic requirements in religion, philosophy, English and the social sciences. The first two years are still general education; the last two mostly spe­ cialization in a major subject. The tendency on the one hand to greater specialization has been resisted; but so has its opposite, longer and stronger general education. New winds do blow, however. The breeze-like murmiu: of merger of Arts and Letters with Science has grown to a steady current. Even its strongest adherents admit that the chief objection is a mechanical one, just the knotty prob­ lem of arranging programs, re-organizing. The department­ al grooves are well-worn and rather comfortable after all these years. From another quarter the Great Books influence blows steadily, stirring many changes. Freshman English has shifted aWay from "rhetoric and composition" to reading and understanding literary classics from Sophocles to King JUNE GRADUATES try out thdr caps and gowns on Lardner.

This year marked die lOOdi observance wulf to Hardy. The College of Law requires seminars in of this custom. the Great Books of its freshmen and juniors. There is hope­ ful talk of a new inter-departmental four-year course in Arts and Letters in the Great Books. And everywhere in­ formal non-credit Great Books sessions spawn. Departments are moving \vith the times. Veterans had clamored for courses on communism, in the history of the war, in international affairs, in Central and South Ameri­ can countries. They goth them, and packed them.. Mr. Gurian's course in The Rise of Marxism has 127 students this semester. Realization of the serious role the U. S. must play in world affairs is reflected in other crowded courses in history and political science. Three full years of Religion are now required, \vith the emphasis on Christian living in modem society. Elec­ tive courses in Christian marriage, family problems and Christian leadership are booming. In Modem Language there is a new, more practical approach—solid grounding in converstation and reading rather than long, tedious drills in the more precise, but less useful, aspects of grammar. Journalism has had its face lifted toward the study of contemporary civilization, realiz­ NAVY AND AIR CORPS Reserve units train reserve ing that complex modem society requires reporters and officers over a four-year program in' addition to dieir critics who know principles as well as practices. Sociology, regular studies. political science and education are expanding, meeting to­ day's needs with new courses, new teachers. The syllabus and its bedfellow, the departmental exami­ nation, have become the symbols of the new courses. Stu­ dent notebooks bulge with the blue-prints of new courses tentatively spun out by a faculty reaching out to better methods and better texts. More and more departments are giving common examinations for all students taking the same course. This has the merit of setting a steady pace; the disadvantage of too much sameness. Probably the greatest change in student study habits is in outside readings. The new syllabi and examinations are based to a considerable degree on a range of reading far beyond what was required of the student of the 20's and THE NEW RADIO STATION, WND, broadcasts 30's.

by John Carrol

All Notre Dame students work harder now than they did ten, t^venty years ago. Probably students everywhere do. Maybe it's the veteran influence. Maybe it's the sobering reflection that the average U. S. citizen has got to know more if he is to accept the new responsibilities thrust upon DR. STEPANOS KALOAPAILA demonstrates appar­ him. Maybe it's just that there's more to know: all the atus to a hydraulics class in die engineering laboratory. branches of knowledge have seen a lot of discoveries since 1930.

Usually the switch in the past few years—cutting dovyn to four years at the beginning of the war, and now going back to the five year course again. The main emphasis in the extra year is on the engineering side of architecture. Enrollment has mushroomed; there's a new look to the building from the east, with the new cinder-block addition for added draft­ ing room space. With a faculty more than doubled in the past ten years, most College of Engineering departments have added undergrad courses. They're preparing the highway engi­ neer to meet the post-war world with a new elective in airport design and construction. In the Aero Engineering department they get right to the heart of the matter. The new elective in flight aerodynamics gives the student about ten hours "stick time" in the air—proving for himself the classroom principles of aerodynamics. Most of the departments are making the old senior thesis research problems an elective or doing away with them entirely. At the new soils lab they've started a teach­ ing-research experiment. CE's Professor LeRoy Graves is directing a group of picked seniors in an original research project on stresses in foundation soils. If they're successful. Professor Graves hopes to publish the findings. The war jumped the number of students taking and planning to take graduate work—with a certain amount of good effect on their undergraduate scholarship. The trend is apparently falling off already, though. Faculty men point to the large number of schools having a hard time getting SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH at Notre Dame continues to the graduate students they need for research. Bulletin expand in all directions as more and more equipment boards are littered with announcements from Hopkins, is obtained. MIT, Stanford. A good graduate student is as hard to find as a good halfback, and much more expensive to maintain. Competition for good students is keen. A first- rate college student who wants to go on to graduate rvvork can almost write his own ticket. Undergrads are demonstrating their enthusiasm for what they're doing by the support of things like the campus units of the engineering professional societies—the Ameri­ can Society of Civil Engineers, the Institute of Radio Engineers, and many others. The societies are non-social, stricdy technical, professional groups. ND science mcH, unlike those of some universities, are still part of the student complex. There's a healthy hall inter-action between them and their AB brothers.

Seven varsity foot­ ball men spend their class time on the far east side of the campus—^including co-captain-elect Leon Hart, a mechani­ cal engineer. When you ask College of Science faculty men how the education here stacks up with that at other schools they point to the wartime Navy program, with the large number of transfer students it brought. ND students measured up as well as the outsiders and in many cases better. Engineering's Dean Karl Schoenherr is normally a mild man, but he gets rather emphatic when he tells you, "I believe we are just about as good as any school you can name." He reminds you that the enlarged faculty makes it possible for each instructor to specialize more in his own field—and that it has made new courses possible.

1948 FOUNDATION TOTAL EXCEEDS $600,000

During the calendar year 1948 the University of Notre Dame Foundation received gifts totaling $614,939.42. Of this amount $458,735.10 was received from the alumni, while $156,204.32 was donated by friends of Notre Dame. The 1948 amoimt exceeded the 1947 total by $63,136.42.

The University was the recipient of a number of bequests in 1948— one for $112,000, one for $1,000, and another for $166.12. There was also one capital gift for $100,000.

The University also became the known beneficiary of a number of insurance policies in 1948; one for $1,000, $5,000, $3,600, $2,500 (in case of accidental death, $5,000), and another for an undisclosed amount. These figures were not included in the 1948 Grand Total. Two of these policies were from alumni while the other three were from friends of the University. Mr. Thomas McKieman, Ft. Wayne City Chairman, was responsible for two of the non-alimmi policies, while Mr. Paul Hoefl3er, Providence City Chairman, was responsible for the other.

The total amount received in 1947 and 1948 was $1,166,742.42. This compared to the total amountfor 1945 and 1946, of $812,729.00. In other words, during the existence of the Notre Dame Foimdation in 1947 and 1948, $354,013.42 more was received than during the previous t\vo years. During both periods, 3 gifts of $100,000 were received.

Thus the second edition is an intimate account of Notre Dame in her first 106 years. Included are the saga of Father Sorin, the great football years, the glories of academic achievements, and many others. Available now . . . $J^.OO a single copy (postpaid)
