It consists of a small group of Chicago business men who were unselfishly willing to give of their time and counsel to Loyola. They have proved themselves, time and time again, of indispensable aid to the school. The Council is composed of a general chairman, a legal adviser and three com- mittees each of which assumes a separate responsibility. These committees are finance, public relations, and building and grounds. The whole council meets but once annually but meetings of the separate groups are held whenever needed. Just as the Academic Council insures proper management and regulation of the educational side of the institution, so the Administrative Council insures the proper handling of the financial end of the school. The success of this handling is evidenced by the present financial status of the university. This year the University and the Council lament the loss of Mr. Lawrence A. Downs who died in the autumn of 1940. Mr. Downs, a former president of the Illinois Central System, had been a member of the group since its inception. Stuyvesant Peabody Edward J.

Originated in 1928 under the presidency of the Reverend Robert M. Kelley, S.J., sixth president of Loyola University, the Academic Council has since functioned with extraordinary success. The board is pri- marily an advisory body to the president on those matters which concern the educational policy of two or more branches of the university considered as a whole. 16 Academic Council The Reverend The Reverend The Reverend Elmer A.

One of the most important duties on the program of the Academic Council is proper maintenance of the Academic Standards of the University so as to uphold the high standards required by the North Central Asso- ciation, and affiliates. 17 e* Herein, for the next thirty-three pages, we find;: JiiwH THE GRADUATE SCHOOL •'4 ^HE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES THE MEDICAL SCHOOL THE LAW SCHOOL IE COMMERCE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY COLLEGE fEST BADEN SEMINARY SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WORK ld$s pictures, faculty informals, and st A review of the year's activities 19 The Graduate School Dr. Paul Kiniery Assistant Dean of the Graduate School The Graduate School began to function as a distinct unit of Loyola University in 1926. Prior to this time graduate work of an academic character had been offered by several departments, but the ever increasing demand for advanced instruction prompted the President to found the Graduate School which was to have jurisdiction over the graduate degrees to be conferred by the University. Before the foundation of the Graduate School, however, a limited number of Master's degrees had been conferred. The aims and purposes of the Graduate School are those of the University, that is, to integrate scientific, literary and cultural training with a sound philosophy of life based on Catholic principles of right thinking and living. From the beginning graduate courses leading to the Master's degree in Education, Law, Medicine, Psychology and Sociology were offered. In subsequent years there were added the departments of History, 1929; English and Social Work, 1930; Mathematics, 1931; Economics and Philosophy, 1932; French, 1933; and Chemistry, 1934. In 1932 graduate work in law and the Master's degree in Law were dropped. In 1933 the Master of Arts degree in Social Work was substituted for the Master of Arts in Sociology. From the first year of its existence the Graduate School has offered the doctorate in education, although there have been times when the University has considered its abandonment.
