The Inauguration Cardinal Krol offers the closing prayer after the inauguration of Brother Patrick Ellis. La Salle, Spring 1977 1 B ro th e r Patrick Ellis, F.S.C., Ph.D., was inaugurated as “A College Founded on La Salle’s 26th president on March 20 and called for a renewal of the courage, faith and values practiced by St. Human and Spiritual Values” John Baptiste de La Salle, the founder of the Christian Brothers, the teaching order that received its charter to conduct the college on that date, 114 years ago. Speaking to some 700 guests —including John Cardi­ nal Krol, D.D., J.C.D., Archbishop of Philadelphia — Brother Ellis explained how de La Salle worked with the early Brothers in France to collate a set of techniques that still work at all levels of education. This “centrality of excellent teaching” is the hallmark of all La Sallian schools today, he said. “We certainly have some of the same communications La Salle had,” added Brother Ellis, “the needs of the church,” of society, especially of the city, and most especially of the immediate community around us. While he perceived that the children of the poor and of workers were left unschooled entirely, do not we perceive that many young people are, no matter how superior some of their schooling, are left without faith, without mental order­ ing of their separate acquirements, and largely without purpose? “ Don’t these signs of the times lead us, on one hand, to a great openness in terms of all the means, all the instru­ mentalities of timetable and format, but also to a great insistence upon a deep, calm core in a college education Brother Patrick’s mother, Mrs. Harry J. Ellis, enjoys the ceremonies. that gives purpose, unity, and meaning to it all?” In addition to the formalizing of The Inaugural Address: the transition, La Salle observes today the 114th anniversary of its A Call for a Renewal Charter. Having recently had ample op­ of Courage and Faith portunities to think aloud in the presence of colleagues and students on a variety of topics, and feeling less than ready to broach the cosmic in present company, I shall put before the meeting a few reflections on the College’s name. To delve into our two great historical confusions —the misnamed Ex­ plorers and the place on La Salle Street in Chicago —would take more time than we have, so, on to the topic! La Salle proudly bears the name of the Founder of the Christian Brothers, Saint Jean Baptiste de La Salle.

We can start with “vain” plans of demonstrating our success to neighbors and relatives and quickly degenerate, in the face of delays, cost overruns, and shoddy workmanship, into taking the names of various contractors, craftsmen, and inspectors “in vain” in another sense of that word!

  • Music Always Undoubtedly Brings Us Closer Together. the Connection Forged Runs As Deep As Any Family Bond Does
    Music always undoubtedly brings us closer together. The connection forged runs as deep as any family bond does. Similarly, the story of Tonic revolves around the longstanding, close brotherhood shared among members Emerson Hart [vocals, guitar], Jeff Russo [lead guitar], and Dan Lavery [bass]. Since 1996, the GRAMMY® Award- nominated multi-platinum trio has consistently delivered anthemic and undeniable rock fashioned from eloquent songcraft, lyrical honesty, and unshakable melodies. Along the way, they translated true experiences and real memories into a storied catalog that resounds as loudly today as it did over two decades ago. “Sometimes, I’ll see somebody in the crowd who’s not more than twenty-years-old,” says Emerson. “This person will be singing a thought I had in 1995 right back to me: every word and every note. Realizing the power of that was a big moment for me. If there are people in the crowd and we’re playing together, that’s the magic of it. We still love it. There’s an understanding this is bigger than us.” The songs continue to endure. To date, the band has landed six Top 10 singles, sold 4 million-plus records, and garnered a pair of GRAMMY® Award nominations. As the story goes, Emerson and Jeff linked up together in Los Angeles as Tonic during 1994, with Dan joining the group in 1996. Inspired after catching U2’s Joshua Tree Tour in his native New Jersey, Emerson went to L.A., where he and Jeff launched the group. Their full-length debut, Lemon Parade, not only went platinum, but it also yielded the “#1 Most-Played Rock Song of 1997” in the form of the lead single “If You Could Only See.” The band’s follow-up single, “You Wanted More,” served as the lead-off from the platinum Original Soundtrack Album for American Pie and the second full-length, Sugar.
