Prefatory
The Wisconsin-Alpha Chapter of Phi Sigma Tau, the National Honor Society for Philosophy at Marquette University, each year invites a scholar to deliver a lecture in honor of St. Thomas Aquinas whose feast day is March 7. These lectures are customarily given on the first or second Sunday of March.
The 1965 Aquinas Lecture "The University in Process" was delivered on March 7 in the Peter A. Brooks Memorial Union of Marquette University by Dr. John O. Riedl, Professor of Philosophy, Marquette University.
Professor Riedl was born in Milwaukee on June 10, 1905. He earned the A.B. at Marquette University in 1927 and the M.A. the following year. In 1930 he received the Ph.D. Post-doctoral studies were made at the University of Toronto, Columbia University, and the University of Breslau, Germany.

The University in Process
The honor implicit in the invitation to give the Aquinas Lecture makes me deeply conscious of the debt I owe my illustrious predecessors on this platform for the grace and dignity with which they have endowed it. The honor you accord me in coming to hear the lecture emphasizes my accountability to you for both my choice of subject and the development of it. I am therefore especially concerned to set at rest any doubts I may have raised about the purpose of my discourse.
