ofCHANGE The corner o f Grand and Warren was the site of unending change. From a new shine on the gymnasium floor to the
changing faces o f faculty, St. Peter's was a place where all members o f
the
community grew together. The change was apparent between the freshmen that walked through the doors of St. Peter's in the fall of 1994, and the seniors who graduated in June, 1998. Some won championships on the field, in the pool, or on the track, while others brought academic glory to the place we called Prep. t
The underclassmen were also in the
, midst o f change. By beginning to learn the meaning of "A Man for Others," whether by offering a classmate help on an assignment or cheering a friend at a soccer game, they realized what Prep was all about. As the seasons changed, so did the Prep. Before

FROM T H E B EG IN N IN G .
Winter is a season of dormancy—a time when freshmen are in the midst of their first year and getting their first taste of Prep life.
Spring is a season of initial
growth, when the sophomores prepare to assume the role of upperclassmen as their involvement at Prep increases. Summer is a season of further growth, when the juniors are filled with school spirit and are about to embark on their Emmaus experience. Fall is a time of diversity. The seniors are like the leaves on the trees during this season-all different colors, shapes, and sizes. They eventually leave Prep and move on to college, just as the leaves on the trees eventually caught in the wind and travel to all corners of the globe. Winter, spring, summer, fall-freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior. Prep, like the seasons, is constantly changing.

S
t. Peter's is a place where students and faculty gather together to learn from each other.
Whether
it
Religion 1,
be sharing personal experiences in or solving complex problems in AP
Calculus, Prep teaches its students to learn from the wisdom o f others.
Present throughout these
experiences is the overwhelming feeling that we are not here to learn the specifics of Biology, Latin, Art, or European History, but rather we are here to begin a life o f intellectual reflection and growth beyond the classroom, without its textbooks and calculators. Winter is the season of academics, spanning through much o f the school calendar. As the weather remains cold outside, the never-ending quest for knowledge takes place within the doors o f St. Peter's Prep.

From the early hours o f the morning until the late afternoon, he can always be seen working diligently at his desk - often behind the scenes and long after others have gone home. For ten years now, this man has devoted his life to Prep and its ideals, giving selflessly o f himself to make life a little easier for all o f us at the Prep. He is truly a man for others. He is single-handedly responsible for the day-to-day work o f schedules, progress reports, and report cards arduous tasks to say the least. He sacrifices much o f his free time to rem edy scheduling conflicts, and is always willing to make last-minute changes at the request o f students. In addition, he also plays a crucial role in Prep Orientation, parentteacher nights, open houses, and other special events. Each summer, he serves the Prep as the Summer School principal, co o rd in a tin g student and faculty schedules, supervising instruction, resolving conflicts, monitoring JUG, andsometimes teaching.

student body at St. Peter's Prep. He supports, guides, and encourages the hard work o f all m em bers of the Prep com munity. One faculty member commented, "He's such a friendly, warm-hearted person. He is respected, admired, and loved by all o f us." His door is always open and inside he greets everyone with a warm smile and a friendly hello. In addition, he takes great pride in moderating the highly successful math team. As one nomination read, "If teaching and learning are central to the life o f St. Peter's Prep, it is very clear that [he], by extension, is central to that way o f life." Whether it be working with the math team, compiling data o f subject medals and honors, or collating report cards, he is a man who loves what he does. We, the editors o f the 1998 Petrean, would like this opportunity to recognize his talents and contributions to the Prep community. It is with great honor that we dedicate the 1998 PetreanXo oneofPrep's unsung heroes, our VicePrincipal, Mr. Patrick Reidy. As one nomination aptly read, "In all he does, he's a class act."

USAGE O F THE v er b
" v o c o ."
A ngu & gesC & y he classical language department was a crucial part o f academic life at St. Peter's Prep. Every freshman and sophomore was required to take Latin 1 and 2, respectively. Both courses not only focused on the grammatical structures o f Latin, but also dealt with the art, culture, history, and mythology o f ancient Rome. St. Peter's is one o f the few Jesuit schools still requiring its students to take Latin. A fter sophomore year, students could elect to take Latin 3 H on ors with departmental approval. Latin 3 Honors was a prose survey course o f a variety o f ancient

pring is a time o f rebirth. As nature returns to new life, so do Prep students after 2:30.
Whether it was in athletics or in club activities, Prep men were constantly achieving their best. As usual, Prep's athletic teams were full o f life. The soccer, cross country, and swim teams had county titles in their sights. Hockey and basketball also worked hard to finish their season with winning records. Prep clubs were also full o f life. The band grew in size and the forensics team grew in strength. Spring is a time of j oy and enthusiasm. With similar vitality, Prep men contribute to the school through its many sports and organizations â&#x20AC;&#x201D;activities that allow Prep pride to burst forth in radiance.

Fesken and the fiv e Henchmen charismatically led "A v e s " and "Railroads" all year, whether Prep was winning or losing, and helped fans to enjoy the games. The hard work of the Prep cheerleaders also cannot be forgotten. Underthe coaching o f Jennifer Cassaro and the leadership o f head captain Beth Iorio, the dedicated, enthusiastic, and talented girls from St. Dom inic's Academ y and the A cad em y o f St. Aloysious played a major role in defining Prep Spirit.

Several organizational changes were made. Instead o f one editor-inchief in charge o f publication, the responsibility was distributed among Khurrum Sheikh, Rajiv Mehta, and Dhaval Patel, who were responsible for the photography, computer layout, and copy edits, respectively. Time was spent editing, revising, and designing to make the Petroc entertaining. The fou r-p age publication considered increasing its size by 100%, but instead, opted to introduce decorative spot colors.

he Stage Crew faced many n ew changes this year.

Production Manager Chris Boggiano was resp o n sib le fo r designing, building, and painting the set for Bus Stop. Using a system o f crews that were assigned specific days o f the
week, the entire set was constructed and painted weeks before it was moved to St. P eter's C ollege. Stage Managers Danny Leverone and Tex Schundler were responsible for much of the actual building. Crew chiefs Juan Castro, Andrew Perseghin, Mike Vizzacchero, Matt Elson, James Lallo, and Adam Samarat were also integral parts o f the Stage Crew.

Summing
4" It Op very year Prep participates in the Catholic High School Math League. This league, composed o f about 30 Catholic High Schools in theNew York metropolitan area, has been active for over 31 years. Prep competes at the Varsity and the Junior Varsity levels. The Varsity level is open to all students, while the Junior Varsity level is open to only juniors and sophomores. Freshmen do not have enough math background and are therefore not permitted to compete. This year the response was amazing. Mr. Reidy, the moderator o f Math team said, "I am happy to see that the number o f students participating has increased o v e r the past th re e y e a rs ." W hen asked o f the importance o f the Math Team, Mr. Reidy stated, "The team provides an opportunity fo r students w h o like math to s p irite d ly e n g a g e in frie n d ly c o m p e titio n w ith o th e r lo c a l schools."

Reelin' 'em In ontinuing its tradition, the Prep Fishing Club enjoyed two deep ^ ^ s e a outings in October and April, organized and led by seasoned fisherman and Club moderator Mr. Robert Zawistowski. The members o f the club and several parents sailed out o f Liberty Harbor in Jersey City. The Pioneer II slipped out in the darkness of the morning and reached her destination o ff the reef o f Sandy Hook in one and a half hours. For six hours the fishermen enjoyed the warmth o f the sun, the serenity of the ocean, and reeling in the fish. The crew o f the PioneerHwere kept busy filleting as everyone caught a fish. Bryan Archibald caught the largest bluefish on the October outing. Per Mr. Z, he did not doubt their success as his motto is, "If they're out there, we'll get them." Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely and were reluctant to head back to Jersey City. Their only consolation was be a fresh seafood dinner.

They w on both the Jersey City and South Hudson Championships, in addition to placing second in both the Coaches' County and Hudson C o u n t y Championships. The team was led by its best runner, Kyle W itko w ski.
T
Contributing to the team's success were captains Sal Candela and P a t r i c k McGovern. Toward the end of the season, Freshman Billy Bludgus also made outstanding contributions to the Varsity team's record. The team attended CrossCountry training camp as a precursor to the season. During camp, all the m e m b e r s p articipated in various exercises d esign ed to prepare them for the season. H o w ever, this preparation could not p revent
injuries. Head coach Mike B u r g e s s commented, "Throughout the season, we never had the full healthy squad that w e needed in order to be in a winning state of mind. W e hurt ourselves by not taking care o f our bodies." Despite these setbacks, the team em erged successful. L o o k i n g forward to a more successful season next year, coach Burgess said, "Our setbacks are in the past, but now I can look forward to next season when there w ill be a senior dominated team.

Rebuilding a Champion his year was a rebuilding year for St. Peter's Prep football. After posting a 54 record in the 1996 campaign, hopes w ere extrem ely high for a winning season. The team opened the regular season at home with a 14-0 loss to Paramus Catholic. A fter tw o more road losses, the team returned home to the newly turf-covered Cochrane stadium fo r the Homecoming Gam e against Dickinson. The team beat up on the Rams and ran theirwaytoa21-0 victory. Playing
against North Bergen, the team was out-muscled and lost 42-0. Playing hard to maintain their pride, Prep beat Ferris 6-2 on a 90 yard fumble return for a touchdown by ju n ior linebacker Mark DiGesu. The biggest surprise of the 1997 season came when a now con fiden t Prep team lost to Hudson Catholic 18-15 for the first time in thirteen years. The last game ofthe season for Prep was at Bayonne. Bayonne scored early to make it 8-0. However, Prep's defense stepped it up a notch and
held Bayonne's offense scoreless for the rest o f the game. Late in the third quarter, Sophomore Mike G onelli broke through the Bayonne line and scored on a long run from scrimmage. After a failed two-point conversion that would have tied the game, Bayonne's defense held Prep to no more points. In front o f a rainsoaked crowd of faithful Marauder fans, Prep lost the gam e 8-6, and finished their season 3-6, with hopes to come back bigger and stron ger next season.

his year's soccer team en tered the 97 season with lofty expecta tions and the talent to m eet them. Coaches John Irvine '83, Brian McCabe '92, and Joe Fitzpatrick realized that in order for the team to succeed, the trio o f captains— seniors M ike Mara, Jonathan Foster-Moore, and Anthony Portelli had to lead by example. Mara led the defen se as Foster-Moore and Portelli pro-vided a potent one-two offensive punch. The season began w ith a highly attended victory at North Arlington , fo llo w e d by a v ic to ry o ver Lyndhurst. Prep
T
opened up its county season by pounding Marist 12-0. Theteamthen beat Hudson Catholic 4-3 on a penalty kick by Anthony Portelli. They followed with wins against Lincoln, Bayonne, and Ferris by a combined score of 14-1. The team headed fo r the p layoffs with a seven-game unbeaten streak. In the county p layoffs, ■ Prep defeated Ferris 1-0 in the first round, Hudson Catholic 10 in the semi-finals, and tied Emerson 0-0, to share the county title. In the state tournament, the team, seeded 4 out o f 11, faced off against Immaculata in the second round after a firstround bye. Prep
scored twice in the second halfto beat Immaculata and advanced to the semi-finals to face Delbarton. In that game, the team s t r u g g l e d throughout the first half, down 10. They w ere unable to score, hitting the cross bar twice, and lost 0- 2.
Senior Pat McDermott said, "In September, we knew we were the best. W e played well and the fans w ere awesome. Other teams had no clue what they were getting into when they came to Caven Point." Congratulations to the 1997 Hudson County Champions!

(A or the JV basketball squad, the 97 98 s e a s o n turned out to be everything expected andmore. Three members o f this year's talented twelve were on last year's freshman team—ateam faced with confusion and inconsistencies. The team has d e f i n i t e l y responded to the challenges thatthey faced in the beginning o f the year. According to co-captain KeUen Williams, "Wehave proven ourselves to all those who had any doubts about us." The majority of
F
JV's wins w ere exciting and very convincing. This was especially true in the beginning of theseasonwhenthe team com pletely dem olished St. Aloysius by an incredible fiftyeight points. H o w e v e r , th e re w ere also many games where guts and desire w ere prime factors that led them to victory. In one scenario against Dickinson, they w ent into overtimeandended up winning by nine points. "Wehaveproven thatwe are the team to beat and the one sitting on top o f the mountain," said co captain Ryan
Carroll. He further added, "Many tried to pull us down, but we made a determ ined and consistent effort to stay on top. I want us to be remembered as a great team, not as a g o o d team that could have." Hard work, determination, will power, and a quest for glory motivated this JV team to success. They confidently demonstrated that they are a team that w o n 't settle fo r mediocrity, but one that will push on to attain its goal o f excellence. W ith this attitude, the road to future success is paved.
Tri-captains E m m a n u e l Thom pson, Jim Supple, and Scott Cunningham were the team's guiding forces behind their practices and games. Butlikeany team, a supporting cast is needed to achieve a successful season. This cast of students included such talented athletes as John Cossolini, Mikhail Kowlessar, William Bludgus, William Rabbitt, and Anthony LaSpada, who contributed to the team's strong
performance. A c c o rd in g to Coach Dennis Nu ber, "This year's freshman team is com posed o f 15 excellent athletes. All have shown a tremendous work ethic and enthusiasm for the game. The im provem ent o f each player is easily seen by the coach ing staff. I would like to thank each player fo r their effort during the season and wish them success in their returning threeyearsatPrep."
cA his year's freshman basketball team had their share o f victories and defeats. Headcoach Dennis Nuber and his coaching staff kept the team focused throughout the season. Even tough losses to teams like Bayonne and Ferris never broughtdown their confidence andlevel o f play. Their hard work and practice paid off as fiie team s h o w e d improvement and success.

A tth e end o f the season, they emerged victorious in their games against W estfield and Johnson Regional, stronghouses o f last year. The team demonstrated hard-work and dedication and a constant effort to improve their practices which in their games became an obvious desire to win. This motivation and skill helped them to win many games early in the season. SophomoreMatt Kickey stated, "Though w e began the year with a losing record, w e w ere confident w e would do better than last year."

The Season that /MaA-ters Prep wrestling had nothing short o f a milestone season. It started last year with gru elling training sessions in the weight room, and ended with a successful finish in 1998. Preparations fo r this year's competition began with several s u m m e r tournaments and attendance at the Penn State Wrestling C amp. The results s h o w e d themselves early as the team began the year with a 4-0 record, setting a new milestone for the program , including a tournament win for the first time in Prep w restlin g

The JV team had strong s h o w i n g s throughout the year, highlighted by sophom ore Enver Vucetaj's mastery ofthehead throw and junior Mike Santucci's varsity arm against P a s s a i c . P e r fo r m a n c e s such as these encouraged Head Coach Keith Kelly to call this squad "quite possibly the bestwrestlingteam in Prep history."

A Splash of Victory he 1997-98 s w i m season was an exciting one, in that Prep faced some tough competition but managed some decisive victories. Coaches Carlos Garafa andJeffJotz returned for their third season. The teamwasledbyCoCaptains Larry Lazzara, Chris Boggiano, and Dan Paskas. The season started with a tough loss to state ranked Pingry.The next meet was a shockng loss to Delbarton, a team who beat Prep with some of its s t r o n g e s t swimmers absent. Prep crushed St. Joseph's o f the Palisades to win the Bee's Classic. They
T
followed this with tw o more impressive victories in dual meets against St. Joe's, avenging a loss last year, and against Hudson Catholic, who also beat them in the C i t y Cham pionships last year. As a result o f these victories, Prep was ranked number fourteen in the state by the Star Ledger.Theyfaced St. Joseph's o f M etuchen, defending State Champions, at St. Peter's College. The large number o f St. Joseph's swimmers helped send Prep to their third defeat. Prep dropped out o f the state rankings, but this did not dampen the team 's enthusiasm. They
went on to beat Bayonne, and they took third place in the State Sectionals, coming behind state powerhouses Bergen Catholic and Northern Highlands. The Prep swim team went on to recapture the City C h a m p io n s h ip from Hudson Catholic and crushed St. Joseph's o f the Palisades in the f i f t e e n t h consecutive C o u n t y Championship. Prep's ability to maintain its number one position in the county was due prim arily to its dedicated and mo t i v a t e d swimmers.

SUMMER
S
ummer is the season o f lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a time o f joy and togetherness. It is a time o f community. Prep students were involved in many summer activities.
As tutors and teachers, they introduced seventh graders to the intricacies o f Prep culture. In Costa Rica and Germany, they represented Prep in student exchanges. Through the Christian Service program, they helped the needy and learned to become "Men for Others." Prior to their return to school in September, the Peer Advisors met to plan activities that would assist the incoming freshmen in adapting to Prep life. Unlike the summer that came to an end, the students never ceased to represent the Prep. Friendships began in the summer, and activities that fostered community continued to gro w â&#x20AC;&#x201D;the light of the summer still shone brightly.

Commitment to Serve he Christian Service program was mandatory for alljuniors. It required 60 hours o f community service to people in need. Under the direction o f M r. Middleton, the Christian Service program was once again a success. The juniors were allowed to choose the form o f their service. With the elderly, children or whatever interested them, all juniors found a place o f need in the community. Some juniors chose to complete their service over the summer. Popular programs included trips to West Virginia or Kentucky with Fr. Azzarto. Jonathan Ryglicki, who com pleted his p ro jec t in Kentucky, stated, "By giving my all I received more from those I helped than I could have ever imagined." Frank Giordano, who traveled to West Virginia, added, "The people I went to help ended up helping me more by showing me how lucky I really am to have the family and

friends I do, and I am grateful to them for that." Mr. Jorge Becerra, who ran the summer reflection groups, said, "It is a great program, but only if the students put their all into it will they see what the program is all about." Jonathan Graham, who worked at the food pantry said this about the program; " If it weren't for Christian Service, I would not have found my compassionate side, and this has helped me to become a better son, brother, and friend." The Christian Service program completed yet another successful year at Prep and the future looks bright. Mr. Middleton stated, "It is a good program but I would like to find a way to ease some o f the pressure on the ju n iors." Though ju n ior year is particularly busy, students always look back on their service as having been rewarding.

he tall yellow house on Ocean Avenue in Sea Bright is the setting for some o f Prep's finest moments. Each year several Emmaus retreats take place in Sea Bright. The Emmaus Team, under the guidance o f Fr. Azzarto S.J. diligently donated their time to make the Emmaus experience special for those on retreat. Emmaus was a time to get away from the hardships and routine o f the school year. During the weekend at the Jersey Shore, Emmaus brothers attempted to grow spiritually as they listened to and reflected on the trials and tribulations o f their fellow retreat members. Emmaus brothers often grew close to each other by making their Emmaus banner, frosting the famed "Emmaus Cake," and sharing their feelings. On the M on day after the retreat, students, faculty, and parents j oined with the retreat members in Madonna Chapel to reflect

on the im portance o f the retreat. Fr. Azzarto coordinated and hosted all o f the retreats, which lasted from 12 noon on Saturday to late M onday evening. Groups o f juniors traveled down to Sea Bright with senior leaders and four or fiv e adults. It was the responsibility o f seniors to set a fine example o f reflection for thejuniors in order to help them grow. Seniors began many sessions by sharing their thoughts on specific topics to small groups which consisted of juniors and one adult. Junior Chris Valenti o f Emmaus 154 commented, "Although it was not what I expected, I did learn a great deal from it; the retreat was wonderful!" B obby W allace said, "Emmaus sets Prep apart from other Catholic high schools." Emmaus helps the juniors to see life through the love o f themselves, God, and others.

While the maj ority o f seventh graders spent a myriad o f hours in front o f the television or on the Internet a select group of 125 students experienced Prep in the form o f the Higher Achievement Program (H.A.P.). Under the direction o f M r.John Irvine '80, H.A.P. '97 proved to be another successful year. This summer marked the thirtyfourth year in which H.A.P. helped to keep kids o ff the streets. A typical H.A.P. day began with classes in Math, Reading, and Creative Writing/English. A fte r lunch, students participated in intramural sports, which included soccer, basketball, and volleyball. The substance awareness program, coordinated by Mr. Bill Lillis emphasized the perils o f becoming drug and alcohol dependent. Following in the tradition o f the past two years, the keynote speaker was Mr. Jeff Thaxton, a retired navy

In the classroom, they w ere on-hand to p ro vid e individual assistance to each student as well as offer their personal insights on any specific topic. Sophomore Dhaval Patel, editor-in-chief o f the H.A.P. Magazine and a soccer coach, commented on working with junior high students. "Ihadone ofthe rare opportunities to work v ery closely with some students, and it was a great experience for me and the students as well." To celebrate the end o f the program, the H.A.P. staff held a ceremony inside St. Peter's Church. In addition to receiving diplomas, the staff presented worthy students with trophies and medals for outstanding achievement.

(Preparing, Advising, Caring) he m ost d ifficu lt element freshmen deal w ith at P rep is the adju stm en t to a n ew environment. With this in mind, several juniors and seniors, who make up the P eer A d v is o r Committee, reached out to help freshmen establish themselves at Prep. The Peer Advisers, along with Mr. Becerra, engaged in many events throughout the year to ease the transition o f incoming freshmen. The hard work o f the Peer Advisors began in M ay o f 1997 with the Class o f 2001 Spring Orientation, w here the incom ing freshmen became briefly acquainted with their future surroundings. Later, d u rin g the fa ll orientation, the Peer Advisors, assigned to a specific freshman homeroom, answered questions about homework, schedules, and co-curricular activities. The

s o c ia l iz e
Freshman Olympics helped the freshmen get to know each o th e r th ro u gh basketball, volleyball, relay races, e g g drops, and balloon tosses. As the year progressed, Peer Advisors visited homerooms and offered their assistance with any problems the freshmen may have had. The responsibility o f the Peer Advisors extended to all aspects o f Prep life, and one often saw them extending their hand to a freshman in the cafeteria, library, and other places arou nd G rand and Warren. Mr. Becerra stated that PAC's "main job is to make the freshmen feel comfortable at Prep throughout the entire school year, and notjust during Orientation.'' Having once been freshmen themselves, the Peer Advisors knew just what to do to get their job done.

INTERCAM8I0 his past year, students took part in the first ever Costa Rican exchange. The exchange linked Prep with Jose Figueres Ferrer Liceo Experimental Bilingue in Cartago, Costa Rica. Five students, along with Ms. Ana Garcia, journeyed to Costa Rica during the summer o f 1997, where they lived with host families and became acguainted with "Tico" life. They visited a rainforest, the Irazu volcano, and the capital city o f San Jose. In addition, the students went horseback riding in a national park and relaxed on the warm beaches o f Puntarenas. The Costa Rican half o f the exchange ended with a party where typical "Tico" cuisine was served. Justin DeBenedectis spoke o f his experience, "I appreciated the hospitality and friendliness o f the p eop le and enjoyed experiencing a new culture." In January and February of 1998, ten Costa Rican students

and their teacher, Ms. Rosi Simon, spent twenty-two days in the United States, living with Prep families and exploring the wonders o f North America. Besides attending classes, the Ticos visited many sights in New York: the Statue o f Liberty, the W o rld Trade Center, R ock efeller Center, Times Sguare, the United Nations, and various museums. They enjoyed a showing o f The Phantom o f the Opera and a weekend trip to Washington, D.C., led by Mr. Jim DeAngelo and Mrs. Bernadette Costanzo. Ms. Garcia organ ized the itinerary o f the exchange and served as an expert guide and translator when needed. She said enthusiastically, "I have enjoyed leading the first exchange with Costa Rica, and I believe that an exchange experience enhances a student's know ledge o f the Spanish language and culture."

very two years, several German students have the o p p o rtu n ity to experience American culture first-hand. The exchange began after many months o f planning by coordinators //err DeAngelo and FrauCurry in March 1997. The students participated in two weeks o f classes at the Prep, prior to the one-week Easter break, in which every day broughtforth a new adventure. Spending the entire day following the typical life o f their American hosts, the German students had the opportunity to experience the full spectrum o f American life, as well as to practice their English. In the United States, the Germ an students enjoyed such events as a trip to Ellis Island, three days at our nation's capital, a Nets game, and Great Adventure. Three months later, the Prep students ventured across the Atlantic to experience German life. They spent their first week
E
in Berlin, staying as a group at Canisius-Kolleg, a Jesuit-run school. The time in Berlin was spent visiting many historic sites, such as C h eck p oin t Charlie and Holocaust-related areas in Berlin. Other sites the students saw while in Germany were: Bonn (fo r m e r cap ital o f W e s t Germany), Trier (a city dating back to Roman times), and Monchau (the post-card image o f a German village). Prep's students also attended classes in Clara Fey Gymnasium. All the students became immersed in the experience, destroying false p recon ceptions, and g a in in g a w h o le n ew perspective o f each other. An exchange like this is something which cannot be replicated in any conventional trip. Living with their exchange partners, lastin g relation sh ip s w e re developed. For all, it was an invaluable experience.

all is the season o f diversity. Beautiful leaves o f different colors can be seen everywhere.
Like the leaves, Prep students, in their individual differences, radiate a similar beauty. The diversity of St. Peter's is one o f its greatest aspects. Prep prides itself on having students o f all different backgrounds from all over New Jersey. Like the leaves that are eventually scattered by the wind, Prep's seniors will move on, using the education Prep has given them, and taking it to a higher level. Yes, St. Peter's Prep is a special place, but without its many different people- its students, faculty, staff, parents, and alumni- it would simply be a bland assemblage o f brick and mortar. Its unique people are the "leaves o f beauty" o f fall.

A Man for All
Seaeone egend o f Prep and Spirit Award recipient are just two titles for this former Prep student, teacher, prin cipal, and guidance counselor. Fr. John Browning, a member o f the class o f 1946, left Prep last year after a major illness to reside at a Jesuit community at Fordham. Visits and cards from faculty and students cheered him but, sadly, after lapsing into a coma, Fr. Browning died on February 16,1998. In his tenure, Father Browning taught Latin, Math and Social Studies. He had an uncanny ability to relate to his students. As principal in the early 1980s, he was able to bring the school together by raising spirit and m orale. Fr. Balduf, a longtime friend, described Fr. Browning as compassionate,

sympathetic and very under standing. Fr. Browning was well-liked and respected by faculty and students as a teacher and principal. For his organization al skill, ingenuity, spirit, and humor, he was selected as part o f a special faculty to open McQuaid High School in Rochester, NY. In addition to creating the Prep Spirit A w ard , Fr. B row n in g founded and moderated the Ebony Club. He also founded and directed the H igher Achievement Program (HAP). For his service, leadership, and spirit, the memory o f Fr. Browning will never fade. His legacy lives on through his many gifts to Prep. Fr. Browning-we love you—forever to be remembered, never to be forgotten.

Springtime is the season o f glorious new beginnings, and with it comes a surge o f vitality. As juniors, we began to assume our new role as leaders o f the community. W ith ren ew ed en ergy and d e te rm in a tio n , w e to o k to the outdoors, conquering the baseball diamond and the oval o f the track. W ith v ig o r w e stroked the tennis raquet, spiked the volleyball, swung the lacrosse stick, and sank the putt. W e eagerly accepted the challenge o f m entoring the younger Prep men. Summer is radiant warmth and the clarity o f blue skies-- the beauty o f nature at its fullest potential. As seniors, we have ended our cycle at Prep, but w e w ill carry with us the ideals, values and education that Prep has given us. W e will continue to g ro w as "M en fo r Others/' having been nurtured by the warmth o f St. Peter's. Emmaus team C oLABR AR O .
