Fr. Anderson Resigns
Fr. Browne Is Named Successor
Rev. Paul Waldschmidt
CSC, president, has accept¬
ed the unanimous recom¬
mendation of Rev. Joseph
P. Browne CSC to the posi¬
tion of Dean of the College
of Arts and Sciences. Mak¬
ing the recommendation
was a committee appointed
by Dr. Louis Vaccaro, aca-
* demic vice president.
Fr. Browne is replacing
Rev. James Anderson CSC
who resigned from the posi¬
tion last December due to
illness.
Fr. Browne was born in
Detroit, Michigan in 1929.
He entered the Congrega¬
tion of Holy Cross in 1947
and received his Bachelor’s
л
degree in philosophy from
the University of Notre
Dame in 1951.
After his ordination to
the priesthood in 1955, he
continued his studies at the
Angelicum University in
Rome, where he received
his S.T.L. in 1958 and his
Doctorate in Sacred Theol¬
ogy in 1960.
He was professor of Theo¬
logy at Holy Cross College
in Washington from 1960 to
1965. During that time he
took courses in Library
Science at Catholic Univer¬
sity of America, and in 1965
received his Master's De¬
gree in Library Science. He
had a major role in develop¬
ing the Master’s Degree
program at Holy Cross
College, which was fully
accredited by Middle States
Association.
Fr. Browne came to the
University of Portland in
the Fall of 1965 as assistant
professor in Library Sci¬
ence. He was appointed
Head of the Department of
Library Science and Head
Librarian in 1966.
He served as President
of the Oregon Library
Association during 1967-68,
and is currently Vice-Presi¬
dent and President-Elect
of the National Catholic
Library Association. He
was elected first chairman
of the University’s Academ¬
ic Senate and has continued
in that position to the
present.
Fr. Waldschmidt says that
Fr. Browne’s excellent aca¬
demic and professional
background and experi¬
ence, in addition to his
natural abilities and lead¬
ership qualities, make him
an outstanding choice for
the important position of
Dean of the College of Arts
and Sciences. We are all
indebted to Mr. Cass, Chair¬
man of the Search Commit¬
tee, and the members of the
Committee: Dr. Pereyra,
Fr. James Kelly, CSC, Dr.
Duerfeldt, Dr. Michael
McCoy and Fr. O’Brien —
for their fine work.
Because a Librarian and
Head of the Department of
Library Science will have
to be found to replace Fr.
Browne, and because of the
complication his immedi¬
ate appointment would
make for the Academic
Senate, Fr. Waldschmidt
has agreed to Fr. Browne’s
suggestion that he be
named Dean-Elect, and that
the effective date of his
appointment be set as June,
1.1970.

Nader Set For
Evening Talk
One of the disadvantages
of booking a nationally
prominent figure is that
when things happen in
Washington, the repercus¬
sions on local schedules
can be fairly immediate.
This was the case with
Ralph Nader, scheduled
for UP on February 3. It
seems that. the U.S. Senate
decided that the first week
of February would also be a
good time to convene hear¬
ings on ecology, in which
many of the Nader-spon¬
sored bills will be consider¬
ed. As a result of this, the
time for Nader’s appear¬
ance at UP has been chang¬
ed from a morning presen¬
tation to an afternoon and
evening one. He will now be
on campus from 4 o'clock on
during the third day of
February.
Although the full sched¬
ule will be announced next
week in the BEACON,
Nader’s two principal ap¬
pearances will be in the
Commons for dinner (at
5:15) and in the Buckley
Center Auditorium for a
presentation and question-
answer session at 7:15.
Seminars before and after
these are being planned.
One of Nader's mort
controversial activities ha:
been his evaluation of regu
latory agencies. Beginninf
with an investigation of th*
Federal Trade Commissior
in which he scathingly call
ed for reorganization of thi:
federal agency (which i:
charged with consumer pro
tection duties) he has comt
to the conclusion that “Reg
ulatory agencies have fail
ed by the most modest
о
standards.”
In order ot increase hi:
available manpower for in
vestigations, Nader ha:
made use of vacationinf
students during the pas’
two summers, a group tha
has come to be known a:
"Nader’s Raiders.”
Nader is not loved b j
everyone. One incident re
corded in TIME tells
о
Lyndon Johnson’s effort:
to find the windshield wash
er on his new Chrysler. Un
familiar with the Nader
inspired safety feature
о
non - protruding knobs
Johnsow pawed at the dash
board in vain while he con
tinued to drive. Utterly
frustrated, he turned to
г
passenger and muttered
"Thatgoddammed Nader.”
Beginning this Friday night a movie will be presented on
campus each week. The movies will be shown, as scheduled be¬
low, in Buckley Center Auditorium unless preempted, in which
case they will be shown in Mehling Auditorium (downstairs).
Showings will be at 7:00 and 9:30 p.m. The prices of admis¬
sion will be .75 a person and $1.00 a couple (boy & girl).
