It will live intimately with you. I like to think of its tabernacle enshrining the youthful Christ, the Christ of the Campus. To young men through the ages it will impart virtue and strength and love and goodness that will beget leaders in character, leaders in faith and truth. I hope it will see only good days—days good to God, free and unoppressed." —David D. Klise, 15. Past President of the Alumni Cardinal Stritch, during one of the ceremonies at the dedication mass.
