I'd be leery of doing that unless the only items below the top
directory are other directories (i.e., no regular files).
If you have subdirectories you want to alter, but you also have
regular files sprinkled through the tree, it'd be best to run find
instead, e.g.,
find /your/directory -type d -exec chmod 3775 {} \;
