i like the colors! the atmosphere is overwhelming!
students' dining hall
so many meals....great feastdays....singing...reading....book after book..silence...conversation...peanut butter mixed with sugar hidden under the table for another meal...fond memoried....
The sound of shairs sliding as everyone in the room stood to say grace...
I can still envision the Piano back in the corner and the Daughters of the Devine Zeal serving up what was actually pretty decent meals. The priests usually avoided the student dining room but Fr. Tim would go table to table serving coffee to the students.

Flashbacks to being assigned 1st waiter, 2nd waiter, dishes, etc. At one point my name fell off the dishwashing list and I got out of that duty for almost a year!

When we worked at Camp in the Summer we would get to eat (at least some meals I recall) in the priests dining room.

Fr. Dick's etiquette classes. It's all rushing back to me now!
Remember this ugly blue room before Brother Benny Natoli made it like home
Looks like the dropped ceiling finally DROPPED!
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 ?
That school will forever be the best part of my life. I am saddened that it has ended up that way and most recently by the discovery that Father Dick was accused of molestation. What a great school though and great times. I tell my kids all the time about those etiquette classes in the library on Saturdays.
