This book tells the fascinating story of Niagara University's inner life and outward journey since its founding 150 years ago. What began as a Catholic seminary in 1856 has evolved into a modern mid-sized Catholic university. The path was not an easy one, as the university - faculty, students, and administrators - faced major changes in both the external environment and its own internal imperatives. Central to the story is the university's struggle to preserve and assert its Catholic and Vincentian heritage and identity, sometimes at great cost. This book is useful for courses in the history and administration of higher education in the United States.

I've been known as the poet now for forty years. I've had that license plate most of those years, and now the Department of Motor Vehicles just sends me that plate every year. February 1977, I had just turned forty, and we were going through some rough times, I had never read the Bible before, and upon our mantle was a large one gathering dust. I took it down and opened it, and the words jumped clear off the pages and hung there in midair. The Lord really got my attention, and I started to read the New Testament, and in three months, I had read it through eighteen times. I started going to church, I went up to the altar and asked Jesus into my heart. I never liked poetry, but instantly, that is what God gave me, and they just began to flow, and I love to honor Jesus in this manner.
