In his book Norb Bufka (Class of 1961) notes that St. Joe’s Seminary changed dramatically in 1969 when college students moved to Christopher House near Aquinas College and took classes at the college.

St. Joe’s became an on-site high school with the focus on training young boys for the priesthood and other possible vocations. Norb notes it “began to look like a regular high school by adding a yearbook and obtaining class rings.”

Beckoner was the yearbook title for six yearbooks:  1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973 and 1974. There were no yearbooks in 1975 or 1976.  The title Horizon was used in 1977 and 1978.

The yearbooks provide a snapshot of life in St. Joe’s and include photos of the members of the freshman, sophomore, junior and senior classes.
