Fmfewom' Behold the portals ot learningl These are they, behind whose broad and bland exterior swift days of college lite have passed, as in a dream. Within the sanctuary they sentinel, a thousand other doors lie open-doors to wisdom, to culture, to friendships, to ideals, to the innumerable treasures ot the mind, Comes lune, the ponderous gates will swing back, and another graduating class tiles forth. Into a world ot sunlight and shadow they will take their hopes, their courage, yes, and something more. They bear with them a heritage, the priceless benefits gleaned ot tour years ot college living. It is a heritage time cannot alter, nor circumstances attect. The multi-colored, shitting scenes that have been enacted behind these doors can never be recap- tured or recalled, They have already joined the swelling throng in the misty halls ot memory. It is the purpose of this book to open tor one last glimpse these barred doors. One look. It is enough. And we are gone. lfll

To His Exfellency THE MOST REVEREND THOMAS MARY OLEARY, D. D. lust as in the days of old, when the toasts were raised, the cry Went 'round the boards, To the giver of the feast, so do We offer our toil and the fruits thereof to him who made them possible. To our Worthy President, the Reverend Bishop, then, We dedicate these pages. May the years smile kindly upon him, and may God's blessing descend upon his efforts in behalf of Catholic Education. t6l
