school population. It is now over 440 pupils. That is not large as schools go, but it
is something new in our history. He might miss the cosiness and intimacy of the
small school he knew; but on the other hand if he were fond of games, especially
rugby, he would appreciate the better chance of getting somewhere with the larger
field to pick from! There is something he might not like so much: the pressure of
the points system for his chance of getting into university.
There is still an effort made at a liberal education; but there are pressures he did
not feel when he was going through 'the happiest days of one's life.'
So The Gonzaga Record salutes in a special way the Past in its first issue. And it
most humbly reminds them of the school motto ... SEMPER ET UBI QUE FIDELIS!
