i.J. displays his piano playing skills as he offers his rendition of Tchaikovsky ' s Romeo and Juliet. background seem to reflect his dedi- cation to people. He has his masters in arts and psychology along with numerous other graduate credits. He has taught at the University of Grenoble and Univ. of Caen in France, Seton Hall, New York Uni- versity, Worcester State College, and Anna Maria College. Along with all that teaching expe- rience, he brought human experince to Bridgewater 18 years ago. From 1959-1962, he worked as an educa- I . tional advisor in Cambodia at the invitation of the Unitarian Service Committee. Currently he serves on the Board of Directors of Old Col- ony Hospice, which was keyed by a lengthy illness to a member of his family. With so many years in the field of education, it is hard to imagine him not teaching. Since his retirement from Bridgewater, he has been substituting at Bridgewater- Raynham High School as a Latin teacher and auditing courses at many of the Boston-area colleges in order to keep up with his contem- poraries. With such a desire to teach and to learn it is hard to understand why he left Bridgewater. According to a Brockton Enterprise article, he retired to allow young blood into the philosophy program. ODD The 1985 Yearbook staff would like to thank Professor Joyal for the opportunity to dedicate this year- book to him. We wish him the best of luck in the future and hope that he realizes that he has touched all of our hearts. G.C.M. Quotes You are only what you are when no one is looking He who flatters you is your enemy, he who refuses you is your teacher. Pleasure and pain are opposites When you share grief, you decrease it; When you share joy, you increase it. The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it. Better an honest enemy than a false friend. Love looks through a telescope; envy through a microscope. If a man wants his dreams to come true, he must wake up. Marriage is a kind of graduation cerem- ony in which a fellow loses his bachelor ' s degree without acquiring a master ' s. To dream of the person you would like to be... is to waste the person you are... If you would have a friend, be one. To be happy, memorize something good each day, See something good each day, Do something helpful each day. Achille is pictured here in his study, which was the source of many of his most profound thoughts. 11
