Benilde Builds Men An assembly line is judged on the quality of its product. Its finished product is the fruit of the labors of each and every one of its workers. They labor and produce a perfect reflection of themselves in their final piece of workmanship. When they fail, and all assembly lines at one time or another fail, the product’s inadequacies are entirely settled on their already weary shoulders. Our assembly line is Benilde. Students at Benilde are only raw materials, teachers are but laborers and the school itself is a mere assembly line. from year to year the raw material comes in as freshmen. The workers mold and remold them — correcting their faults, while retaining their initiative. As the years go on. the young, once unsecure freshman growing in experience and tempered by past mistakes, climb the rungs in the ladder of life. As the stages of development are passed, the final product of Benilde comes to light. The hoy once gullible, is now questioning; the boy once knowing, is now understanding; the boy once afraid, is now confident; the boy once a boy, is now a man. 16
