.AS Thc fivc hundrcd ycars from Constantinc to Charlcmagnc saw thc cnd of thc world of classic antiquity and thc bcginning of thc ncw world of thc Middlc Agcs. Bctwccn thc brilliant cul- ture: of old Grcccc and Rome and thc crudc habits of thc Bar- barians from the North a grcat chasm intcrvcncd. And thc only bridgc that could span it was a common Faith, supcrnaturally transccnding and cnclosing both old and ncw. Providcntially God gavc thc world a hridgc-huildcr. tho grcat- cst man of his agcf-thc Pontiff Augustinc. Hc it was who drcw thc plans for thc City that thc Catholic Church would build in thc world - a City of Man at homc in thc City of God. Sccond only to thc dcsigncr-bishop was thc buildcr-monk, Bcncdict. HC, with his sons aftcr him, by thcir union of praycr and work, built thc civilization of thc Christian millcnium- -thc ncarcst approach yct madc to thc City of thc God- Man. In thc cpic story of thosc five ccnturics, wc scc thc story of our own cducation hc-rc at Gonzaga. With littlc knowlcdgc of thc world and its trcasurc of opportunitics and trials, wc camc to high school. Wc wcrc as yct barbar- ians , unawarc of thc high hu- manism that a Libcral curriculum posscsscd and could give us. Wc wcrc grcat, but only potcntially, in thc truc scnsc of grcatncss. Thcn, as wc movcd forward from ycar to ycar in our studics and contacts at school, wc havc grad- ually comc to scc that thc truc grcatncss consists in thc union of thc old traditions and thc ncw cncrgics, of cxpcricncc and cn- thusiasmfof work and praycr, of thc human and thc divinc.
