"This composition of our time and place embraces six billion people with their faces young and old, some being born and others dying, some white and many brown and yellow and black. Each one is a unique individual, they all aspire to live life, to use their talents, to support their families and care for their children and elders, to enjoy peace and security and to make tomorrow better.

Thanks to science and technology, human society is able to solve problems such as feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless or developing more just conditions of life, but stubbornly fails to accomplish this. How can a booming economy, the most prosperous and global ever, still leave over half of humanity in poverty?

Injustice is rooted in a spiritual problem, and its solution requires a spiritual con­ version of each one's heart and a cultural conversion of our global society so that humankind, with all the powerful means at its disposal, might exercise the will to change the sinful structures afflicting ourworld."

Rev. Peter-Hans I

YAFFA ELiACH ~~

As a child in Lithuania, Yaffa Eliach escaped death in the Holocaust, which claimed the IiVEiS of more than 200 members of her family, by hiding in the forest and later in caves that belonged to Polish friends ofher family. As World War II came to an end, she returned home, only to witness the brutal murder of her mother and her baby brother. These experiences of unspeakable violence and hatred might naturally elicit feelings of revenge, anger and despair. Yaffa Eliach, however. molded these experiences into an unwavering, lifelong commitment to community, peace and hope.

As professor of Jewish history and literature at Brooklyn College, Eliachtaught others about the Holocaust and the way oflife it destroyed. In 1982, she published "Hasidic Tales ofthe Holocaust,"the onlymajorcol· lection of Hasidic tales and anecdotes to have been com piled from the Holocaust experience. Thesetales engage central questions concerning good and evil, destruction and redem ption, faith· and loss offaithin God and others. In "There Once Was a World: A 900·Year Chronicle of the Shtetl of Eishyshok," Eliachde· scribes the rich history of the village of her youth. In addition to these and other publications, Eliach founqed America's first Center for Holocaust Studies, served on Presldenfjimmy Carter's Holocaust Commissional1d created the "Tower of life"-'-a permanent photograph ic exhibit spanning three floors ofthe UnitEid StatesHo· .locaust Memorial Museum inWash ington, D.C. For her tireless efforts to preserve the memory ofJewish life in Europe ahd to promote unity among peoples, she was named\Alornan ofthe Year by CBS In 1995. She serv.ed as the Edward B. Brueggeman,S.L, Chair in ecumenical al1d iqteTrelIgl0us studies atXavier in 2003• .;,J ...'

57 XAVIER'S HERITAGE

Xavier was founded in 1831 by Bishop Edward Dominic Fenwick, O.P., pioneer Catholic bishop of Ohio, as the first Catholic institution of higher learning in the Northwest Territory.

Known as the Athenaeum, the college's first building in downtown Cincinnati, was largely financed by Eu­ ropean Catholics and particularly by Catholic citizens of Vienna. The first class numbered 60 students. From its beginning, the school was dedicated to the patronage of 51. Francis Xavier. The Athenaeum attracted students from as far away as New Orleans, Mexico and Central America, and its educational quality drew many local Protestant students.

At the invitation of Bishop John Purcell of Cincinnati, the Society of Jesus Oesuits) assumed control of the institution in 1840, ensuring a steady source offaculty. Under John A. Elet, S.J., the first Jesuit president, the institution was renamed 51. Xavier College.

Xavier offered its first evening classes in 1841 and summer courses were introduced in 1914, thus begin­ ning a tradition of serving the unique needs and schedules of professionals and aspiring professionals in the Cincinnati community.

In 1920, the college moved to its present site in Avondale, and in 1930 was renamed Xavier University, reflecting its growth and complexity. While women had been attending Xavier's evening college since its early years, Xavier's undergraduate "day" college became coeducational in 1969. In 1980 Xavier acquired the Edgecliff College programs and integrated them with those at Xavier, and by 1987 Edgeclifffaculty, staff and students were moved onto the Xavier campus.

Xavier's growth in over a century and a half since its founding reflects its origins as a teaching institu­ tion which soundly prepares students for careers or graduate study or both. A Xavier education, particularly at the undergraduate level, is marked by the emphasis on liberal arts learning contained in Xavier's core curriculum. Equally im portant in the Xavier tradition is the synthesis of human, cultural and ethical values; concern and respect for people; and an appreciation of the worth and dignity of the self and others.

The College of Arts and Sciences, Xavier's largest and oldest college, enrolls approximately 1,700 under­ graduate and 90 graduate students, and accepts the primary responsibility for the liberal arts education of all Xavier undergraduates. The Williams College of Business enrolls 935 undergraduates and 900 MBA students, and is dedicated to preparing business students for positions of responsibility and leadership. The College of Social Sciences enrolls 1030 undergraduate and 1,760 graduate students in specialized areas of human services.

Xavier has been an innovator in graduate education, establishing, for example, the first graduate pro­ gram in Montessori education in the United States. Its graduate programs in education have produced the second highest number of school administrators in the state of Ohio. Xavier's graduate program in health services administration is a recognized innovator in the field. The Executive MBA Program, the Health Ser­ vices Administration Program and the MEd in Human Resource Development educate upper level managers, professionals and executives while they maintain their current positions in their respective organizations. The Department of Psychology offers a master's degree with specializations in General Experimental and In­ dustrial/Organizational. While some of these graduates continue their education, many assume responsible positions in corporate America. The Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) Program holds the distinction of being the first doctoral program at Xavier. SPECIAL UNIVERSITY PROGRAMS

THE MACE

The mace symbolizes the legal and chartered authority of Xavier University. It is brought into the gathering immediately before the President. Historically, the mace was a war club. In the Middle Ages it was carried by a bodyguard to defend a person ofauthority. Today, its purpose is strictly ceremonial and carried by the Grand Marshal. During the ceremony the mace rests at the front of the stage in its holder. A mace is a custom-made piece of art and sometimes crafted from relics of the university.

THE SEAL OF XAVIER UNIVERSITY

The seal of Xavier University combines three principal ideas: St. Francis Xavier, patron of the university; the Jesuit order of which he was a distinguished member; and the university. The five verti­ cal stripes suggest the coat of arms of the Xavier family. A right arm wearing the Jesuit robe holds aloft the crucifix, signifying St. Francis Xavier preaching Christ crucified. The three sea shells signify the three journeys of Xavier into the Orient. Above the shieldi;llj~t,heJ!~'S';uit ;; ", .\ seal, IHS, the first three letters of the name Jesus in Greek.i.eldw is the Jesuit motto, AMDG [Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam], which translates "to the Greater Glory of God," and the words Vidit Mirabilia Magna, a phrase from the psalms applied to St. Francis Xavier, which translates "he has seen great wonders."
