We find Seattle University memorably alive in the following pictures. They are the characteristic scenes that dynamically capture for us those impressions of SU which invariably come to mind in remembering the year and the University. A solitary priest strolling at dusk while saying his Office is a familiar campus sight. Fr. Harry Kohls, S.J., frequently uses the alley behind the McCusker Building for his peripatetic prayers. Often found in Bellarmine after saying the 11:15 Mass, the beloved and controversial Fr. Michael Toulouse, S.J., could be identified again this year by his continuing sermon on faith, “reason's last refuge . Dr. George Santisteban tries to catch the attention of two of SU's feline friends. Having made SU their domain, the cats have become familiar campus explorers. Every Friday afternoon the Chieftain is littered with Seattle University Spectators and populated by leisure readers, glad it's Friday. Linking Campion to the rest of the campus, the slanting crosswalk across East James is traversed innumerable times by many students. The familiar Teatro Inigo, signboard which quarterly proclaims first, the tryout, then the performance schedule for the SU Drama department plays, here announces the Fall production, Orestes . 4

1 .......to catch SU alive. . each year is a unique pattern of motion made by Seattle U's component dimensions: academic, spiritual, athletic, activities and classes. To catch SU alive, to capture the personality of the University and the dynamics of the year, we have focused on the actions and interplay of these five hands or aspects of the University, viewed against the seasonal and architectural chessboard of the campus. Here, each of the hands has been arrested in a characteristic action symbolizing its contribution to the life of the University. The strong clenched fist of athletics, the spiritual hands folded in prayer, the academic hand making its point and passing on knowledge to the reaching, inquiring hand of the classes, and the meeting of hands in activities—these are the living components of the University. Seattle University has a particular intimacy. It presents distinctive idiosyncracies ranging from seasonal moods to the characteristic gesture of a well-known teacher. This inside perspective of the University's personality—the student's impression —is a composite of individuals, events, and scenes a student will remember as representative or typical of SU. It is this atmosphere we have endeavored to capture from the perspective of the University's hands. The enduring personality of the University shapes and in turn is modified by the unique happenings of the year. The familiar teachers and traditional activities come to new life, make new moves each year. This year's University is the current pattern of tradition and innovation. To catch the spirit and record the personality, familiar and new, of Seattle U 1968-1969 is to be where the hands are moving, to see the University from the perspective of its movers and doers, whether this be the academic motion of American literature collages, the spiritual motion of Saturday Midnight Mass, or the athletic motion of a winning season.
