1985-1992
"There are two things commanded in this life that are especially great burdens: we must control ourselves and we must endure."
St. Augustine
Sermon 38, 1, 1
In
the years just before its Sesquicentennial, Villanova University upheld
and advanced its reputation for academic excellence. Important
public officials continued to visit the campus. As the same time
Villanova students remained sensitive to the plight of poor and
underprivileged people, both locally and in the world beyond. Complementing these efforts was a greater commitment to cultural diversity
in Villanova's curriculum, faculty, and student body.
