As a student, I had the privilege of being in Mr. Squires' Honors Rhetoric class in 1979. From those three months of instruction, I grew more self-conscious of my reason- ing and writing as he prompted us to question our competence and subsequent confidence. He taught us to appreciate the potential impact of carefully chosen nouns, verbs, objects, and modifiers. I'm sure he had planned to do, he brought a group of supposedly advanced writers back down to earth. I suppose that's why some of his students in the past two years have alluded to him as a god in whose hands they hang suspended. When I returned to St. Chris- topher's two years ago, Mr. Squires would remind me that students should not linger in the hallway. Although I think he was joking, I was acutely aware of my limited knowledge compared to his erudi- tion. I know that I can still turn to him to learn what I should have known, thus he implicitly reminds me of the reading and study that I have yet to confront. In retrospect, I suppose that I, too, should have asked eight years ago, Is education wasted on the young? No, I realize that education is not wasted on the young, indeed, Mr. Squires has helped me and hundreds of others appreciate the substance not only of his teaching but of our never-ceasing education. - Bob Harris w- t H When I was here, the English Department was the best depart- ment in the school, and he was the best teacher. - Rob Pasco In the twenty-six years I've worked with him, I've viewed him as the English Professorf' and I have always been greeted with a smile, and I count him as a valued friend. - A.J.
