lfcspecffully Dcdica fed to Qafhcr Thomas Garrett The heart of any school is the classroom and the work that goes on within it. While we know that, who among us fails to feel a bit of relief when the last bell rings, class ends, and the questions and the tests and the assignments are over? How many of us look forward to another year in the classroom. These thoughts of ordinary people alone would lead us to dedicate this SAINTSMAN, with gratitude and affection, to Father Thomas P. Garrett, of the Order of Saint Augustine. For if ordinary men feel as we feel, Father Garrett is indeed an extraordinary man. He has spent 46 years in classrooms, twelve' until he graduatedefrom St. Au- gustine High School in 1932, nine more until he was ordained an Augustinian priest. And when the Glass of 1965 assembles on gradua- tion night, Father Garrett will complete 25 years of teaching in high schools. Through all these years, Father Garrett has maintained his total dedication to education. Whether teaching in Chicago in a school with thousands of boys, or in a small pre- paratory boarding school with scarcely a hun- dred, or at Saints, Father Garrett seldom lets a summer pass without going to school himself-in the West, on the East Coast, in the Midwest. Where there is more to be learned in the field of science, he is there, not for degrees, not for promo- tion, not for prestige, but for the sake of faces yet unknown, to be met next September. He is more than a student, more than a teacher. In parishes near and far, his sermons have lifted the weary and confounded the proud. On the military base, his hand has been raised to give absolution to a fighting man. But students see him as a teacher, and knew him to be above all what Shakespeare might have hyphenated: a gentle-man. To a person who has given soul and body, mind and will, to the education of high school boys, not just for twenty-five years, but one day, one test paper at a time-to Father Thomas P. Garrett, 0.S.A., we dedicate SAINTSMAN, 1965.
