Latin Inscriptions  of Fr. Vodoklys S.J.'s Web Site          Take the tour around campus (click on image) "Listen to me, you that pursue righteousness, you that seek the Lord.  Look to the rock from which you were hewn, and to the quarry from which you were dug."  ISAIAH 5I- I     While most of the lessons, preserved in Latin and visible to all who pass by the facades of the major academic and administrative buildings throughout the campus, are indeed hewn from stone, the longest Latin inscription is not only partially hidden from view by a glass wall that blocks the grand entrance to Beaven Hall but is also preserved in the medium of metal.     The plaque records the dedication of Beaven Hall in 1913 as a gift from an alumnus of the College, Bishop Thomas Daniel Beaven and his fellow  priests of the Diocese of Springfield  which at that time included the city of Worcester. But the inscription also offers a concise summary of the Ratio Studiorum, the Jesuit formula for adapting the ideals of humanistic education in the  Renaissance to the demands of a vibrant Catholic faith.
