On March 17, 2014, La Salle University held its annual “Celebrating Faculty Achievement” reception. At this event we recognized notable achievements by the University Faculty in the areas of scholarship, University service, and commitment to the mission of Lasallian education.

    NOTES and REMARKS CHAPTER 1. the Material of Chapter 1 Is

    NOTES AND REMARKS CHAPTER 1. The material of Chapter 1 is accessible in a number of sources. We refer the reader to various monographs and textbooks rather than to original sources. An early, but very readable, treatment is Schatten's monograph [154]. Chapter 9 in Diestel and Uhl [55] is also helpful. Among textbooks which treat the tensor product of linear topological spaces, are those of Treves [165], Day [41], Kothe [113], and Schaefer [153]. The article by Gilbert and Leih [61] contains a succinct account of tensor-product theory. The norms a p discussed in 1.43 to 1.46 were introduced independently by Saphar [152] and Chevet [36]. The paper of Saphar [151] contains a wealth of information about them. The proof of the triangle inequality in 1.46 is from [151]. The isomorphism theorem 1.52 was apparently obtained independently by Chevet [35] and Persson [140]. CHAPTER 2. The first half of Chapter 2 deals with the proximinality of G <2> Y in X 0 a Y, where X and Y are Banach spaces, G is a subspace of X, and a is a crossnorm. Results 2.1 to 2.3 and 2.5 to 2.7 are from Franchetti and Cheney [61]. The distance formula in C(S, Y) (2.4) was given, along with many other important results, by Buck [25]. The part of 2.4 which refers to £00 (S, Y) is from von Golitschek and Cheney [16]. The results 2.10 to 2.13, concerning proximinality in spaces LdS, Y), are contained implicitly or explicitly in Khalil [112].

    1944-1945 Undergraduate Catalogue

    Bulletin of UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT AND STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE SUPPLEMENT TO CATALOGUE NUMBER OF JANUARY, 1945 Since the publication of the current issue of the catalogue, the Univer­ sity has changed from a semester to a quarter system. The calendar year is divided into four equal quarters, a summer quarter, and three quarters which make up the academic year. Three quarters, therefore, equal two semesters. Credits will be recorded in quarter hours, fifteen hours constituting a normal enrollment. In an academic year, a student will usually earn 45 quarter hours of credit, and in four years 180 quarter hours. For purposes of conversion three quarter hours equal two semester hours, and through­ out the catalogue statements in terms of semester hours concerning re­ quirements should be interpreted on this basis. This supplementary pamphlet indicates the corrections to be made in the calendar and in the fees, and in general in the requirements in semester hours for graduation. No attempt has been made to restate the outlines of courses in the several curricula, since these have not yet been completely revised. The curricular requirements will remain substantially unchanged, although the individual courses will be revised to cover one, two, or three quarters. Under each heading below, the page reference given in parentheses indi­ cates the page in the catalogue of January, 1945, to which the correction applies. ACCELERATED PROGRAM (Page 5) Hereafter the University will provide an accelerated program for the following only: veterans, seventeen-year-old men, students preparing for admission to Medical College, and those enrolled in the Engineering or Elementary Education curricula.
