Every Villanovan is trained to be a leader, a guide and champion of others. This is especially true of the Augustinian seminarian of Villanova. for it is he who must relive the Order's great tra- dition of unselfish apostolic service to others. The seminarian is the priest of tomorrow; through him will flow God's grace bringing courage, strength and eternal happiness into the souls of men. The seminarians of Saint Mary's Hall are Re- ligious. By a public profession they have prom- ised to live a life of poverty, chastity and obedi- ence. Hence, the seminarian is called a Pro- fessed, and Saint Mary's Hall is sometimes called the Professorium. The life of a Professed is a prayer-offering to God. Early in the morning the young men of Saint Mary's gather in their chapel for the two most important acts of the day, the attendance at Mass and the reception of Holy Communion. At fixed intervals in the remainder of the day the Hours of the Divine Office are recited to give praise and thanksgiving to God, and to offer reparation for the sins of all men. The day closes with the peaceful Magnum Silentium. In their studies the Professed undergo a train- ing which must meet all the requirements for attaining a Bachelor of Arts degree. The heart of the curriculum is Philosophy. This discipline makes the seminarian a sound and skillful critic of what is true and what is good, and thereby qualifies the aspirant to the priesthood to advance to the higher study of Theology. Prayer and study are essential in the long preparation for the Priesthood, but so, too, is recreation. In a good game of baseball or foot- ball, the young men learn teamwork and sports- manship, and how to think and act when under pressure. Everyone at Saint Mary's is active in some sport whether it be football, baseball, bas- ketball, tennis or ice skating, and there is a long list of athletic stars with their famous homers or run-backs. Whatever may be his future work as a Priest, the Augustinian seminarian will be prepared for his assignment. The Professed's education has fully trained the whole man; he will be a Priest that is all things to all men. 26
