PROGRESS is a forward movement toward attaining desired goals in life, and establish- ing new ones. It is the key to the religious, intel- lectual, physical and cultural development of the student and to the improvement of the institu- tions involved. During the 1970-71 school year, a layman be- came principal of the Academy. This was the first time in St. Bede history and the beginning of a new academic era at the school. Different academic avenues opened as six courses in- cluding Black History, Film making, Music Ap- preciation and Psychology became part of the curriculum. A new board of directors was selected that included four laymen and four priests. It was the first time in the history of the school that laymen were appointed to this position. In 1970-71 the firm of Mitchell-Gillurgula Assoc., international architects, were hired to draw up plans for the construction of the new Worship-Assembly Center north of the Acad- emy. It was the first major building effort since the construction of the fourth floor of the Abbey took place in 1957. Estimated cost of the center was one million dollars. Forty-five faculty members and a number of student leaders conducted a survey of the school in accordance with the North Central Associa- tion of Secondary Schools. It was a total re-evaluation of the school philosophy and ac- ademic program. Through the study the total effectiveness of St. Bede as a cultural and educa- tional institution was measured. These events highlighted the progressive changes that swept over the school during the year. Progress which is a continual movement, helps man better himself and reach the goals he seeks. That movement leads the high school stu- dent onward along the path to his future destina- tion in college and society. 5
