Rev. George Marcil, O.F.M. The same year that we began our college career, Father George Marcil also was beginning his career in the service of God . This duel novitiate created a spec1al bond between Father George and the Class of 1962. Father George, the former Dean of Men, has now assumed the post of Chaplain in addition to his other priestly and academic duties. Despite all th1s work, Father George is always ready to lend a willing hand and to give a word of encouragement whenever needed. No matter how busy he may be, this dedicated man of God always finds tlr:te to attend extracurncular activities whether they be a spqrts event or a social function . We, the Senior Class of St. Francis College, who began our college days with Father George Marcil, feel tha.t 1t is fitting that we should end them by dedicat ing this book to him - our classmate.

REV. M. ALCANTARA PELLETIER, O. F. M. , B. A. Assistant Dean of Men

The faculty and an enriched curriculum reflect our point of view that growth means the suengthening of all those forces that make a college or university great; for one of the really critical issues in higher education concerns the kind and quallty ot an edu cational program which will provide the opportunities for optimum intellectual development . We cannot remain static; for this will contribute to a potentially dangerous Jag between educational effon and mounting educational requirements. REV. CLARENCE LAPLANTE, O. F. M. PRESIDENT

In Recognition The staff of MOTUS ' 62 would like to take this opportunity to recognize the work that Brother Bonaventure has done for St. Francis College. Brother Bonaventure has lived the Franciscan life by working with the soil and by improving the land scape around the College. Almost single- handedly. he built Our Lady of Peace Shrine and has always kept the grounds around the Shrine in excellent condition . During the summer , he makes sure that the shrubs and flowers are in bloom; during Christmastide, he enhances the beauty of the Shrine 1-'ith colored lights and trees. It is our hope that this little tribute to Brother Bonaventure will show the staff's, as 1vell as the rest of the college's, appreciation for the work this man has done.
