Motus 1977

ighteenth Volume St. Francis College Biddeford, Maine

A "life of our design" is very much what life at St. Francis is about. It is here that we do our most growing, where we learn our needs for ourselves and for others. It is here that we more clearly sec our life as we design it.

This year's book is small, but in the pictures and scenes are the life we've built and the life we've lived here al St. Francis.

"To the Class of 1977"

Saint Francis is a small college where people count and now that you have become our graduates and we have become your a Ima mater it is important to us that the strong relationship which has begun during the past four years continues, and that you realize that you will continue to count as important members of the Saint Francis community.

During your matriculation, the College has instituted a new academic plan and calendar, and built the foundation for a College of Osteopathic Medicine. Soon the undergraduate and graduate colleges wi II form a small university known for its combining of theory and practice in a holistic approach to mankind's concerns.

You can be proud of your contribution to improving the quality of academic and extra-curricular life these past few years. You have served on the Student Senate, the Curriculum Committee, the Academic Council and the College Senate, the College Council and various committees and groups, often providing the ideas and energy to bring about needed improvement. The friends you leave behind in the faculty, administration, and staff are proud of you and grateful for your contributions.

You are now members of the alumni of a smal I, dynamic, growing college.

We know that you will apply your intelligence and sensitivity to improving the human condition, and that you wi II translate your experience to the world community/ which is in essence, also a small place where people count.

Dedication President Jack Ketchum

"It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things."

Machiavelli

In Memoriam Roger Lincoln

6

If death is accepted by us already we need not wait for it, be it near or far, with fear or with contempt. We know what it is because we have accepted, we know it is the confirmation that we are creatures and that our end belongs to us ... In this way the riddle of life and death has ceased to be a riddle of thought or imagination; it has become a matter of life, here and now.

Paul Uich

7

Then said a teacher, speak to us of teaching.

And he said: No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.

The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple. among his followers, gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and his lovingness.

If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind.

The astronomer may speak to you of his understanding of space, but he cannot give you his understanding.

The musician may sing to you of the rhythm which is in all space, but he cannot give you the car which arrests the rhythm nor the voice that echoes it.

And he who is versed in the science of numbers can tell of the regions of weight and measure. but he cannot conduct you thither.

For the vision of one man lends not its wings to another man.

And even as each one of you stands alone in God's knowledge, so must each one of you be alone in his knowledge of God and in his understanding of the earth.

Kahil Gibran

Just when I think I have learned the way to live, life changes and I am left the same as I began. The more things change the more I am the same. It appears that my life is a constant irony of maturity and regression, but my sense of progress is based on the illusion that things out there arc going to remain the same and that, al last, I have gained a little control. But there will never be means to ends, only means. I am means. I am what I started with, and when it is all over. I will be all that is left of me.

This is the meal equally set, this is the meat for natural hunger, It is for the wicked just the same as the righteous, I make appointments with all, I will not have a single person slighted or left away, The kept-woman, sponger, thief, are hereby invited, The heavy-lipp'd slave is invited, the venerealee is invited; There shall be no difference between them and the rest.

Walt Whitman
