Day to Day The Memories That For the student attending Ignatius. his school is less traditional in memory. His everyday experiences transcend the traditional and stand behind his memories. Undoubtedly the tower will be remembered by all. But clearer in the mind of the student are the occurrences that he is involved in his daily life at school. The ritualistic shouting in the halls during the changing of classes, as insignificant as it may seem, is an excellent example. It illustrates how students (ask any graduate about what happens when the classes change on any given sweltering Friday) recall the day to day faster than the imposing tradition. It may be a little thing, but yet it serves as a thread that weaves one day into another and forms memories that will be remembered long after the tower is no longer in sight. Our day-to-day life at Ignatius is Withstand Time full of such incidents. The frantic struggle to arrive in class on time, the acknowlegement of a friend passing in the hallway, and being trapped at the end of a 30 kilometer lunch line will remain fresher in mind than the fact that 98% of the senior class will go to college. The tower's majesty cannot compare to waiting for the 2:45 bell to sound during your last class. Nor can the purchasing of a lunch alternative from the hot dog man be drowned out by the tower and tradition. for the day to day memories are far too powerful. These and other routine happenings such as playing a game of cards with your friends or getting some much needed help from a faculty member create the reality behind the myth and can only be fully understood and appreciated by someone who has lived it. Whoever has actually lived, is a part of what is BEHIND IT ALL . . . Day to Day 5
