It’s likely that the more than three dozen students given a private tour of St. Mary’s Cathedral by Archbishop Salvatore J. Cordileone on May 24 left with a deeper appreciation of the cathedral celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
“Is that wood or metal?” a student of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music could be heard asking a classmate as they walked under the massive, mixed-media window that defines the entrance of the cathedral, the third in the city’s history and the first built after the Second Vatican Council.
