I've come across two accounts by Fr. Ong of Saint Louis University in the late 1930s and early 1940s, which covers the time he was here as an M.A. student studying under Marshall McLuhan and as a Jesuit scholastic. They are:

-"Reminiscences concerned with Saint Louis University in the Late 1930's and Early 1940's" which Fr. Ong dictated in 1966 at Fr. Faherty's request

-"Recollections and Reflections on Marshall McLuhan and Related Matters" which is the transcript of an interview of Fr. Ong by James Costigan in 1969.

Both are in the following folder:

Scholarship: Personal Biblography: Texts of Various Talks, Papers, Etc.:
folder 17

which will eventually have a unique call number that reflects the above information: that it's in folder 17 of the sub-subseries "Texts of Various Talks, Papers, Etc." which is part of the subseries "Personal Bibliography" which is part of the series
"Scholarship."
