建筑师兰迪·德沃托为纪念耶稣会士留下遗产,并加入卡林神父遗产协会

Looking around SI’s Sunset District campus, you will find the work of many architects and contractors, including, most recently, buildings designed by architect Randy DeVoto ’68, who played a major role in expanding and remodeling the school’s facilities starting in 1988.
The Society of Jesus and SI have shaped and influenced many generations of the DeVoto family, starting in 1924 when Randy’s father entered SI as a freshman at the Hayes Street Campus. 兰迪和他的妻子玛琳(Marlene)与耶稣会士之间的这种相互联系和紧密联系,使他们加入了父亲哈里·v·卡林遗产协会(Father Harry V. Carlin Heritage Society),并将这所学校列为他们遗产的受益人。
兰迪回忆起他学生时代在圣三一学院的耶稣会士,如Anthony P. Sauer牧师,S.J.(英语老师),Curtis Bryant牧师,S.J.(人文和戏剧老师),Thomas Buckley牧师,S.J.(拉丁语老师),Nicholas Weber牧师(演讲教练)和John Becker牧师,S.J.(顾问)。 “They all spent much time helping me. They didn’t have to, but they did because they were men for others. They, like so many other Jesuits, have supported every member of my family over the years.”
The Jesuit influence in Randy’s life extends to his father (Albert), brother (Terry), three daughters (Anna, Jenny and Lisa), niece (Carolyn) and nephew (Mark), who all graduated from SI. 耶稣会士甚至让兰迪在华盛顿州斯波坎市的冈萨加大学上学时遇到了他的妻子玛琳。他们还在大学三年级时一起在意大利参加了佛罗伦萨冈萨加项目。 兰迪在华盛顿州立大学获得了两个建筑学学位,并在旧金山执业期间获得了建筑师的经验和地位。
1988年,SI与他的公司Corlett, Skaer和DeVoto Architects(现为CSDA设计集团)签订合同,准备一个总体规划,帮助学校过渡到男女同校的校园。 他的公司改造了学生活动中心,并设计了许多新的设施,包括麦卡洛体育馆、赫布斯特游泳馆、带顶棚的停车场和屋顶网球场。 Later, during the Genesis V campaign, CSDA designed the West Campus expansion, which comprised the Gibbons Hall of Music, the Doris Duke Wall 合唱 Room, the Columbus Piazza, the Ryan Weight Room and five new classrooms.
During that time, Randy strengthened his relationships with Frs. Sauer, Carlin and Prietto and the SI Development team, including Steve Lovette ’63, then SI’s vice president. He also worked with SI’s former regents and advisors such as Bill McDonnell ’42, Jay Fritz ’58 and Alfred Wilsey ’36. “They were legends in the business community, and they walked me through the whole process. 他们对我很好,给予我指导和尊重。 Our gift to St. Ignatius is our way of saying thank you for the role the Jesuits have played in our family’s life. It gives us a great sense of satisfaction that we are able to give something back to the Jesuits who have enriched our lives in so many significant ways.”
