VILLA MARIA COLLEGE

ERIE, PENNSTLVANIA

FOREWORD

As she dominates the horizon on the shores of Lake
Erie's blue waters, our Alma Mater is the symbol of the
ideal of virtuous Christian womanhood which she has
implanted in her daughters. Villa Maria College in
1963, expanding even now on her new, modern campus
to meet more effectively the needs of her students, has
perfectly achieved the balance between old and new
which is the essence of Christian living today. Like the
Ecumenical Council which has convened during our
senior year, our school has attempted to fit us to keep
the eternal ideals of virtue, wisdom, and knowledge
while living in the modern world. Villa Maria's tradi-
tion has taught us to retain the best of the past while
adding the finest of the present in preparation for a
future in the arms of our patroness.

Through her understanding, her guidance, and her
dedication both educational and spiritual, our Alma
Mater has equipped us for a world of international
crises, nuclear war threats, and insidious Communist
inroads. She has shown us that it is also a world of
artistic beauty, of scientific and natural wonder, and of
the joys of living if only we respond to them. Now her
work with us is nearly finished. It is up to the Class of
1963 to be ever humbly mindful of the challenge of
God put to us through the voice of Villa Maria: "For
this purpose have I raised thee: that I may show My
power in thee and that My Name may be declared
throughout all the earth." (Exodus 4:13)

DEDICA riON

"And the child advanced in wisdom and age and grace before God and man." Saint Luke penned these
words in reference to a very particular child of a very particular family who walked together the sands of
Galilee two thousand years ago. But they are also applicable to the members of Villa Maria College's
1963 graduating class. We, too, are products of "holy families" with dedicated parents working diligently
to secure for us the myriad opportunities and advantages inherent in a Catholic college education. They,
like the shepherds of old, have "seen His star in the East" and have taught us by word and example to
follow it. Now we approach our entrance into the world of adult responsibilities with an ever-increasing
appreciation for what they have done for us -- and not a little amazement as to how they've managed.

Years and years have gone by since Mom twined red ribbons through our pigtails, struggled over puck-
ering pink chiffon for our first prom, and grimaced understandingly when we dazzled her with the amber
glory of Joe's class ring and announced triumphantly that we were "going steady." Dad has to sweep
away cobwebs torecall his chagrin at his first discovery of his daughter's womanly wiles as she wheedled
a "simply divine" pair of red flats from his not-really-reluctant hands. He'd rather NOT remember his
acute heartburn as his little girl displayed her prowess at manipulating the family car around hairpin
curves or his sinking feeling at the accordion pleat she put in its fender. But it's all in a day's work for
a parent, they'd both reflect with a great sigh. These events of growing up are gone forever now, but
Mom and Dad will never lose them for they, like Mary, have "kept all these things in their hearts."

Not too many years hence we'll be faced with the joys and problems of rearing our own families.
We approach this prospect unafraid because we have only to reflect upon our childhood memories for a
model. Self-sacrifice has been our parents' watchword, cheerful dedication their creed. Under their lov-
ing guidance, we, even as the Child Jesus, have truly "advanced in wisdom, age, and grace." Only age
comes of necessity. Wisdom and grace are the products of struggle. And so, it is with deep love, with
gratitude unbounded, and with a fervent prayer that they may always be proud of us, that we, the Class
of 1963, dedicate this issue of the MAGNIFICAT to you. Mom and Dad.

Our modern split-level Academic Building satisfies
the needs of an eager student.

"We need some imaginative stimulus, some not possible ideal such as may
shape vague hope, and transform it into effective desire, to carry us year
after year, without disgust, through the routine work which is so large a part
of life."

-- Marius the Epicurean

Under the direction of our esteemed administration and faculty, we the
students of the 1963 graduating class have received a liberal education that
has prepared us to be fine Catholic American women.

Those who have directed us in our respective academic careers have in-
deed given us stimuli in the form of drive -- drive to achieve to the fullest
of our capacities. They have given us hope -- hope in the future and the
discovery of new gems of knowledge that it may hold; faith too, -- faith in
ourselves, in our fellow men, and in the very essence of life itself. And
charity -- charity extending to all creatures created in his image.

Then too, they have cultivated in us an appreciation of culture in the
forms of music, literature, art and philosophy. Through their example, we
have come to understand the real meaning of life. In this materialistic world
they have shown us the worth-while things to strive toward. They have made
us acutely aware of our womanhood and its place in the world today. We are
better prepared to follow the dictates of our God, our country and our superi-
ors because we have been shown by them the virtue of complete obedience.

We are grateful to you, our administration and faculty for making us what
we are today -- spiritually, academically, morally and socially mature. Be-
cause of the steadfast inspiration of our faculty the words of that immortal
teacher, Plato, so aptly apply: "Those having torches will pass them on to
others."
