3 OXZVJOX w J E CAME to Boston College in the heights of her academic glory and her extra- curricular prowess. We few who have re- mained to see our College days and this Pub- lication through have come to recognize the permanency of the values and the persistency of the humble spirit of truth and charity which, both in theory and in act, have charac- terized our teachers and their method of education. In any period of life, but in this war espe- cially, we can have but one resolve and goal, as had our classmates and the alumni who have gone before us: Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam. In the world that is to follow, our Christian education and our loyal cooperation shall cer- tainly be taxed in the extreme. If this humble and hurried Publication can serve as the means of reuniting our class and of further stimulating the goals of Jesuit education, our dreams and efforts shall have been rewarded a hundredfold. James F. O ' Donnell Editor-in-Chief

Official Seal of the College, featuring its motto — alev apurrtvetv — ever to excel. The open book, a frequent charge in academic shields, is centered above the tri- mount , which derives its name from Boston ' s old name, Tremoni. The Trimount is taken from the arms of the Archdiocese. Emblazoned above, between the two crowns of Boston, England, sets the badge of the Society of Jesus with its Cross and Sacred Nails. The purpose of the college as set forth in its charter is enscrolled about the inner shield — instruction in religion and the liberal arts. The outer circle marks the founding date of the college by the Reverend John McElroy, S.J., in 1863.
