MISS IRIS EVANS A MASTER or MANY LAUGUAGES, Miss I1-is Evans focuses her talents as a member of l.C.'s faculty on the teaching of Spanish. The Spanish speaking people, their history, and their customs are thoroughly covered in the course which is offered four years. Formerly taught only in the traditional manner, Miss Evans has in- troduced the audio-visual method to her Spanish I classes. Other divisions of Miss Evansis schedule include the moderation of Homeroom 2, and she certainly sets a lively pace for her Seniors to follow. As a chaperone for the Senior Class trip for many years, Miss Evans is now an infinite source of information when it comes to New York and Washington. SISTER MARY LOYOLA R.S.M. EVER READY AND WILLING to Share her knowledge, Sister Mary Loyola inspires all with whom she comes in contact. As moderator and religion teacher for Home- room I, she leads her students to a better understanding of the Christian way of living. World Literature comes alive in her English IV classes as she imparts to her stu- dents a new appreciation for the arts. Tapes and records are only a few of the varied techniques Sister uses in teaching her French classes. Under her guidance, l.C.'s paper the Immaculate has attained All-American for seven consecutive years. As moderator of the French Club, Sister Mary Loyola supplements information to her students for an all-round approach to learning. MISS ROSE MARIE BARRASSO oNE or THE Mosr OUTSTANDING MEMBERS of I.C.'s faculty is Miss Rose Marie Barrasso. Besides her duties as moderator of Senior Homeroom 3, she teaches three classes of English, Religion IV, and P.O.D. Miss Barrasso, a dedicated teacher, inspires her students with a greater understanding of the world around them. She generously gives of her time to those students in- terested in government and world affairs thru l.C.U.N.A., a model U.N. assembly. She also has found time to give aid to the Forensic League, of which she has been moderator for the past nine years. Miss Barrasso gives a fine example of l.C. standards to everyone she meets.

s....,...,,,..-H' SISTER MARY ANDRE R.S.M. ART, DRAMA, AND ENGLISH III students all come under the auspices of Sister Mary Andre. She is known by her students in top phase English III for her unusual and long range assignments. Being the instructor of all four dramatic classes, she is kept occupied with the planning and directing of l.C.'s drama productions. Artistic freedom and a productive atmosphere are as- sociated with Sisteris Art classes. This year's art agenda includes ceramics, sculpturing, and wood cuts, all rela- tively new techniques which Sister introduced at l.C. Sister Andre not only moderates the Marian staff but also teaches potential staffers the processes of publishing a yearbook. All of Sister's classes have an air of free- dom, but do not lack that feeling of responsibility. MISS RITA ANN QUINN THE MODULAR SCHEDULE at l.C. has greatly lengthened the Biology classes and Miss Rita Ann Quinn has certainly taken advantage of this change. Her original techniques and bright ideas add variety to the science of life and create a three-dimensional world of biology. Off campus excursions become Gold hati' to Biology students, but the annual trip to Marymount un- questionably rates high among Sophomores. However, this year, the Science Club's long anticipated canoe trip materialized to the delight of approximately twenty Sophomores. Although Biology does fill most of Miss Quinn's daily schedule she devotes part of the morning to the Sophomores of Homeroom 12, who can think of nothing better than sharing experiences as uwise-fools with her. MRS. FLORENCE WILLIAMS THROUGH HER Jov1AL FHIENDLINESS around campus, Mrs. Florence Williams comes in contact with most of the students at l.C. Her daily schedule includes classes in Algebra, Physiology, and Religion IV. Mrs. Williams earned much practical knowledge of Physiology during her years of work at Kennedy Veteran's Hospital so, she is well qualified to assist her students in solving their questions on physical health. Active in Holy Rosary parish, she gives unrelentlessly of her time and efforts to the Church. Mrs. Williamsis classes are never dullg she enriches her students through total knowledge of her subject. Mrs. Williams has a definite style: she strives to make each girl not only a better student, but also a better person. r'J3.,uMQ ff 'PQJW at GUI-,Qj M7 ,uUJ,f0Q V
