Just want to say Thank You for these shots. I just happened to be looking today and found this site. My attendance at the school seems so long ago but it is part of my personal landscape. Perhaps it is because it was at a time when everything was an experience. My memories hold the school when it was a vibrant, living place of learning and growing up. Perhaps one should also offer that Goshen was (is) a beautiful town in New York. When I had my Sundays with my family we would go to the restaurant with the racetrack (Home of the Trotter ..?) which was a great place. Each week, usually Thursday afternoon, we would go for a walk in the town as part of our schedule. Just walking and talking and enjoying the environment. So many lives in that place. The later dark history. The changes. ..and now decline. The shots and memories are great here. Again, thanks for the time and thoughts. Deo Gratias.

Wow, what a flashback ! I had forgotten about being a waiter in the dining hall. I remember reading to the students on the PA and later went on to be a dishwasher and later a waiter to the faculty here in the building. That was a "big deal" then. I still have the crest for my jacket pocket...it says, "Quis Ut Deus ?" Anyone remember that ?

Showers

I lived there for a year, we had showers and privacy was maintained. That was the same shower room & the curtains were cloth/canvas. It was '59-'60.

I was there for a year '59-'60. I think Fr. Rinaldi was there even then. He was kind to us and had a great personality. If I remember, he wore a cape alot...we called him Fr. Drac (ula). I wonder if it was the same man. He would hve been just starting out with your group Ralph.
