Established in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1924 by Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Had don, the Institute is designed to foster a friendly spirit among college students of all countries and to acquaint them with international affairs. Before the war, the classes were held in Geneva, but in 1939 the Institute's locale was changed to Salisbury, where sessions arc held under the director ship of Joseph C. Bailey, Ph.D., of Hun ter college. Supplementing the regular classes and lectures, students work on various com missions. Miss McNulty was secretary and later president of the Commission on Public Opinion. Besides Mundelein, American schools represented were Loyola, Stanford, Harvard, Denver, and Alabama uni versities, Dartmouth, Smith, Radcliffe, Wcllcslcy, Mount Holyokc, and Doris Ncwcomb colleges. While studying at the Institute, Miss McNulty co-produced and directed a musical comedy entitled Time Waits For No One. She also participated in a World Wide broadcast, which will be aired domestically later in the year and short waved to all English speaking nations. In the New Tradition Skyscraper Balls Are Doubly Wounderful Rome had Romulus and Remus, but Mundelein has twin Skyscraper Balls When the demand for bids to the Ball became so great that everyone could not be accommodated in the room available, the ingenious Student Activi ties Council came up with a novel idea. They decided to cast the leading social event of the year in a double role. Sheila Finney, president of the S.A.C, has announced that the Balls will be held on Dec. 26 and 27 at the Lake Shore club. Senne's orchestra will furnish the music. .. . *H- - -... .* r Vol. XVI MUNDELEIN COLLEGE, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, OCTOBER 22, 1945 No. 2 Faculty Members Address Convention In Kansas City Talk on Guidance Programs In Elementary, High Schools Sister Mary Benedict, B.
