Sometime in 1970 this committee, made up of 5 members of the faculty in the department of psychology and chaired by Vytautas J. Bieliauskas, was created to study the academic and social life on the Xavier campus. It is not clear who established the committee or to whom the final report was submitted. All aspects of campus life from academic standards, faculty and library to student government and intervisitation were examined. The principal instrument employed by the committee was a questionnaire that was developed, distributed and analyzed by the committee. The committee was asked to investigate all aspects of student life on the XU campus and to access the students' attitudes toward campus life. It was also asked to make recommendations for the future.
