Three of Pather's 26 years in the priesthood have been spent here at St. Vincent's as Latin professor, Vice Rector, and moderator of the sports and physical education program. Perhaps our most highly spirit- ed faculty member, Father has involved himself in most of our student activities. For us, he has been a striking example of a dedicated Vincentian priest.

Thomas McIntyre, a man of boundless patience and, thus, one best suited to a job that is both taxing and time consum- ing in its requirements. Under Father's able management, the Seminary's economy has once again weathered another year of uncertainty in the market place. Indeed, the position of financial proctor could only be held by a man with Father's skill and acumen. iii 5-G.-, Y Y A E ,,,. , .-17,7 -TTY t ,,, . , , - i t f ' ' ' 3 I :.,z

In Sister Bernard's chemistry class, a student learns more than mere formulas and equa- tions. He is being trained, ever so subtly, to search and ex- amine, to investigate and evalu- ate in a systematic way. To train a student's mind in this subtler way requires an instruc- tor of superior quality, one who understands the principles and the goals of education, and one who can make those goals come alive for students. During her five years of teaching chemis- try at St. Vincent's, Sister Ber- nard has never failed to instill in her students and in those around her the desire and the ability to strive for that higher level of understanding that en- lightens the human spirit.
