Tableaux of Tranquillity Seeking relaxation from concentrated study, the Regisite pauses at the spacious Library windows. Before her, lies a scene of idyllic beauty — soothing indeed to her restive glance. Sunlight and shadow— the quiet dignity of the graceful poplar and the royal oak. The broad paved driveways offer contrast to the slender fluted columns on the Parterre, reminiscent of the once-great splendor of ancient Greece. Sunlight reflects from a cloudless sky, bathing the rolling Campus in its warmth and light. Friendly branches offer inviting shade to the wandering scholar. Quiet beauty, color, serenity— nature’s best— our Campus. A thing of beauty — the Tower garden — a joy forever. Framed by gravel walks and rolling green, it presents a sweet-scented picture. A riot of color and dewy splendor, it offers a peaceful haven for an hour of leisure. The impressive Norman Tower rises majestically in the background. Softly swaying trees form an attractive border for the nodding blossoms, sporting their finest raiment to charm the passerby. A carpet of living green, upon which is woven a pattern of floral beauty, unrolls before the wander- ing student. Here leafy buds and flowery bells in Nature’s varying colors are dressed. Here warm sun- beams gently caress the fragrant petals and the air is heavy with perfume. Here is a scene of peace where cares and toil and sadness cease. Beauty — its own excuse for being. Through Regal Columns Nature Glimpsed at Work

Serenity of God and Nature A pause in the day’s occupation — when the comforting blanket of night spreads its folds protectingly over the Campus. This is the hour when weary day turns to her rest and the tawny night sits still to brood. Evening shadows caress the outline of College Hall. Radiant moonlight floods the scene with its splendor. A sense of peace and of rest pervades the stillness of the Campus. Here dwell great thoughts of space and eternity. The long and toilless night brings comfort to weary scholars. And the night shall be filled with music, And the cares that infest the day, Shall fold their tents like the Arabs, And as silently steal away. Peace and serenity the setting, love and comfort the gifts, a Regis student the supplicant. From Registration Day to Baccalaureate Sun- day, the tiny Chapel becomes an indispensable part of the whole, labelled College Life. Here is the haven for the troubled scholar, here the loving Friend with Whom we share our joys. Whispered entreaties, fervent pleas, tender confidences alike find a responsive ear. A marble altar, golden vessels, velvet drapes, floral beauty adorn His earthly palace — King of Kings. Chapel — Where Hope Has Kindled Hope
