EditorialsT H E  PR O G R ESS O F U. N. B.Some of us are  old enough to rem em ber the pre-w ar days. W e recall that the  I'n iv ersity  of New Brunswick suffered from  neglect. T h is  neglect took the form  of insufficient funds, a chronic shortage of teaching staff, in adeq uate libraries and so on.I he Law  School in Saint Jo h n  shared in this neglect.But now. a new day has daw ned. T h e  old neglect has gone. vvi- hope, forever. T o d ay , un der the wise leadership an d  progressive guidance of Beaver'brook. T ru em an  and H arrison , the University and its Law  School is m arch in g  forw ard to assum e  its righ tfu l place am ong the best universities in this cou n try . T h is year's gradu atin g  class in the Law  School has witnessed rem arkable progress. T h e  academ ic stan d ­ards at the school have been raised considerably. W e now have tw o class room s  instead of one. A large com m on room  has been placed at the disposal of the  students. T h e  librarv is to be trem endously im proved, due to the m agnificent and  g e n e r o u s  gift of o u r beloved C h an cellor. L o rd  Beaverbrook. A system of tu torial sem inars is in op eration . T h e  in tellectual and ex tra -cu rricu la i activities of the  students in the lield of self-governm ent, deb atin g and m oot courts have never been b etter.
