$1.50 a Year THE IGNATIAN ST. IGNATIUS COLLEGE 15c a Copy Vol. 1 SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF, AUGUST, 1926 No. 1 MANY CHANGES IN FACULTY NEW COURSES ANNOUNCED Radical Changes For Matriculation Radically changed entrance requirements for the Law School and the founding of a new Department of Commerce and Finance, its session hours coinciding with those of the College of Arts and Science, are the outstanding events of scholastic importance confronting the students on their return for the new semester. The most drastic and perhaps the wisest change of policy instituted at St. Ignatius in many years, is the new ruling which requires candidates for the degree of LL. B. the satisfactory completion of two years of approved college work. The necessity of this move is unquestionable. Although the Law School has long been recognized as belonging in the front rank of coast colleges, yet for reasons which it has set forth in countless debates in the American Bar Association and the Association of American Law Colleges, it has always refused to install the stringent and iron-clad regulations in order at most of the larger universities. With the tendency towards educational standardization assuming such massive proportions all over the country, finally, St. Ignatius has decided that it would be to the best interests of the college and the legal profession to require as a prerequisite for admission a junior certificate. The only regrettable feature of the new order of things is that it will undoubtedly deprive a great number of ambitious and deserving young men of their chance to study their chosen profession, but strangely enough, this is one of the very ends that educational commissions are seeking to attain, for they argue, undeniably, that the profession is sadly overcrowded, and that any ruling which cuts down the number of bar aspirants and at the same time raises the average of culture among lawyers at large, is a worthy and a justifiable measure. This reform wipes out the last point of differentiation between St. Ignatius and other western universities, for the matter of law credit requirements has been the only issue on which we have maintained an individual plane; and this great step forward for the college itself more than compensates for the inconvenience which the measure might wreak on a few individuals. (Continued on Page 5) ST. IGNATIUS COLLEGE Office of the President San Francisco, Cal., August 11, 1926. Associated Student Bodies of St. Ignatius College. Gentlemen: In behalf of the Faculty may I offer a word of congratulation and encouragement for your work in inaugurating a monthly magazine of student activities. The recent growth of the various departments of the College has made imperative just such a means of welding together the separate units of the Institution. "The Ignatian", I believe, will become a potent factor in this process of unification. Moreover it should prove an interesting and valuable link between Alumni and students, and a splendid means of advertising the activities of the College among its friends and sister colleges. May God bless your loyalty and labors, and may "The Ignatian" become another step toward the realization of the great Jesuit University which we trust may soon be erected in the City of San Francisco. Sincerely yours, EDW. J. WHELAN, S. J. Former Students Return As Professors When the average collegian returns to college, one of his first queries is to find out the new prospects for the football team, their past records, etc. In Jesuit institutions much the same interest is evinced in faculty changes, for, because of reasons wholly unintelligible to students, their professors are shifted about in as baffling a way as in the famous Notre Dame shift. Fr. Jno. Ward, S. J., comes from St. Louis to fill the office of Prefect of Discipline. Fr. Ward is an old St. Ignatius student and as a scholastic taught many of the lads now in the College Department. He replaces Fr. McFadden who will become "Student Adviser" (or Spiritual Father). Fr. Ivancovitch, former Chaplain and Professor of Religion, leaves for St. Joseph's, San Jose. Fr. N. Bell, S. J., a former Prefect of Discipline at St. Ignatius and of late years Prefect of Studies at Loyola College, Los Angeles, has been added to the staff of philosophy. Fr. Raymond Butler, S. J., also a former St. Ignatius student and recently on the staff of Gonzaga University will handle Public Speaking and English. Mr. Jos. Clark, S. J., replaces Mr. J. Mei, who leaves for Engheim, Belgium, to complete his studies. Fr. Bailey has been transferred to the College Department and will become Dean of Modern Languages. Mr. Win. A. O'Brien, A. B. LL. B.. will assume the Chairs of Commercial and Elementary Law. Mr. B. Sullivan becomes Professor of Accounting in the new day course of Commerce and Finance. Other Changes Seven of the scholastics will leave for other destinations. Messrs. Gatz and Walsh will complete their studies in England; Mr. Burns in St. Louis; Mr. Deschout in Woodstock, Md.; Mr. Fagothey joins the staff at the Junior- ate, Los Gatos, and Mr. Endal is transferred to Loyola, Los Angeles. They are replaced by Messrs. Malone, Clark, Baud, Falvey, Rice, O'Neil, Coffey. The return of Fr. D. J. Mahoney, S. J., is a bit of news which will bring joy to every Alumnus. As preacher, lecturer, professor, Prefect and Moderator of student and alumni activities, Fr. Mahoney has won a place in the hearts of Ignatians, (Continued on Page 2)
