For three years we happily and longingly anticipated the joy of wearing it - as our very own. Modeled on the school seal, the ring presents matter for thought, not only at graduation time, but also through the years and decades that may be ours. Beautiful and symbolic, it will remain a reminder, an inspiration and even a consolation. Unchanging and lasting, the gold circle suggests eternity-and the Divinity of our Lord. In the garnet we may read fidelity and loyalty to ideals, as well as selfless love and devotion. The lamp reminds us of faith, strong and endur- ing, and the torch represents the unending search for wisdom and knowledge. The closed book implies the varied accumulation of learning and culture, acquired during our high school years, whereas the open book invites us to begin a new record of accomplishment and service. In the olive branch we see a symbol of peace -lasting peace gained through adherence to ideals and inspiration. And, finally, we may consider the laurel branch the promise of eternal reward -the fruition of hopes and endeavors, of effort' and achievement-the never-ending happiness resulting from cooperation with our Lord and His Blessed Mother, with parents and teachers, with home and Alma Mater.
