December 1, 1956 My Dear Alumni and Alumnae: It seems as though it were yesterday that we met so many of you at the Homecoming celebration. It was a wonderful day and an inspiring get-together. We did lose the football game but that did not seem to matter. In fact, the thing that struck me most ih conversing with you about the past was not the trivial things that come and go with campus life but the things that carry over into your lives after graduation. These latter experiences have helped to formulate your philos­ ophy of life. It is, indeed, imperative that we have a proper philosophy of life to carry us through the troublesome times in which we live. In the past few weeks we have seen the whole world disturbed by the unprincipled policies of nations who refuse to live in brotherhood under God and who deny to their fellowmen their God­ given rights. Our own country is blessed in its orientation toward God, with an acknowledgment of our trust in Him and our gratitude to Him for His many blessings bestowed upon this nation. We are particularly conscious of these advantages when we contemplate our dedication to God and our fellowmen as expressed in our university's motto. Your happiness will always be yours if this formula of serv­ ice to God and country inspires your life. We inject these thoughts in this letter because by the time you receive it, we will be close to the Christmas Season with its promise of " peace to men of good will.'' This peace can be based only on love of God for Him­ self and of our fellowman for the sake of God. That every blessing may come to you during this blessed Christmas Season and for every day of the New Year is the wish of Your President,

V. Rev. Andrew L. Seebold, S.M., Ph.D. million-dollar •tory •••

Research at the University of Dayton has grown into a mil­ lion dollar business. Individual projects, first begun at UD on an organized basis some seven years ago, have grown to such magnitude that a central office-the University of Dayton Research Center­ has been set up to handle the rapidly expanding service. Announcement of the formation of the Research Center came September 1 from the Very Rev. Andrew L. Seebold, SM, UD president. As Fr. Seebold pointed out, the center becomes a part of the recently organized Community Service Center, together with the Division of Specialized Educational Serv­ ices, discussed in the September issue of THE ALUMNUS. The The Research Center will centralize the negotiation and ad­ ministration of research services performed by the university for government and industry. At present, the majority of Research work being done on the campus in the various research proj­ ects is under government sponsorship. Research activities on the campus-over and above the indi­ vidual projects which have been undertaken by a number of Picture the faculty-are centered in several "projects." These include "Project Globe" and "Project Delta," the two largest research ventures; an electrical engineering department project and. a psychology department project. at Delta's primary effort is centered in classified experimental programs. Project Globe is engaged in computation and data reduction. The electrical engineering department is experi­ menting and evaluating tubes, transistors and other semi­ UD conductors. The psychology department is conducting research in human engineering problems. THE PRESENT research program actually began in 1949 when data processing and computational services were initi­ ated by Fr. Charles Collins and several members of the mathe­ matics department. This was the beginning of Project Globe. In 1952, Dr. Kenneth C. Schraut, chairman of the mathematics department, organized Project Delta. Both have grown rapidly. At the present time, the university is performing work un­ by John C. Bramlage der some twenty research and development contracts. These are being sponsored by the Department of the Air Force, the Jack Bramlage, a UD grad of Department of the Navy and several industrial organizations. the cla.ss of '52, is an adminis­ The greatest portion of the research activities is sponsored by trative assistant in the newly the Wright Air Development Center.

More time work on the projects and many have gained valuable ex­ work in the fields of the social and biological sciences are in perience from solving actual engineering problems involved in the plans of the research center. the research.

Westerheide, '47, who, prior to this appointment, was director of Project Delta.

Administrative offices for the Research Center are located on the first floor of St. Mary's Hall where the large confer­ ence room was formerly located. With space at a premium on the campus, the conference room during the past summer was subdivided into a smaller conference room and three offices for the Research Center. Research projects themselves are scattered throughout the campus, utilizing any space available. Project groups are lo­ cated on the second floor of the Albert Emanuel Library, in Gerald E. the basement of St. Joseph's and Chaminade Halls, in Liberty Busch, '52 Hall, the basement of the Old Gym and in the mechanical Property engineering laboratory. Administrator In succeeding issues of THE ALUMNUS, we hope to present Research reports on some of the individual projects which make up the Center million dollar research story on the UD campus. FOR OUR COUNTRY to maintain a high standard of living, a healthy economy and its position as a world power, it is necessary that the educational institutions of this country take an aggressive approach in the advancement and dissemi­ nation of knowledge through education and research. By es­ tablishing a central organization to administer and coordinate organized research, the University of Dayton hopes to meet more effectively its obligations to the community and to the nation.
