ADMINISTRATION

Page 13 text:

■ r • « His Excellency, Most Reverend Arch- bishop John Mark Gannon has ably exe- cuted his role as chancellor and founder of this ever-expanding institution. He be- lieves that faith and education, in con- junction, give concrete embodiment to the highest aspirations of man. Maybe this is the criteria upon which the Archbishop founded our school in 1941, but whatever it was — many are grateful for the education which he has provided. The power of his guiding hand has been experienced b y us all, and as seniors clos- ing another chapter of our lives, we look to him with reverence and inspiration. CHANCELLOR 1 One of Gannon's greater inspirations is the Right Reverend Joseph J. Wehrle, President of the College. Doc possesses that characteristic which seems to give everyone his con- fidence, and the expansion of Gannon during his tenure of office, in many respects, is directly or indirectly trace- able to his untiring efforts in advancing the school intellectually and spiritually. Our applause, though inaudible, is nonetheless sincere — to a man who has constantly and humbly dedicated his work in a true devotion to God. »« PRESIDENT
