All students attended the Solemn Requiem Mass for the soul of Very Rev. Wlodimir Ledochowski, S.J. the late General of the Society of Jesus. However, classes resumed afterward and no school holiday was given because of "the large and very abnormal absentee problem that seems to be prevalent here. Between sixty and seventy different students have been absent for some time for some reason or other since resumption of classes on January 4, after the Christmas holidays, up to and including this day."
