Last year the Choir gave a very memorable broadcast at Christmas time.Social Science Department Kl'cknik Smith Chairman Department of' Social Science The field of personal and social relationship to man’s society and environment is the study of the social science department. The world’s past and its continuing effects are covered in the history courses. Most juniors study Kuropean history, while students especially interested in the culture of the United States take American history. 1 Human life in the social institutions is the field of Sociology.

Whether slight or serious, every injury and illness is given prompt and considerate attention by the capable medical staff of the college. Two graduate nurses are always on call in the infirmary, and three times a week routine calls are made by Dr. Wedig and Dr. Smith. Those patients needing hospital care are covered by a hospitalization plan. Health records are kept on file in the infirmary office for every student.

Chairman F.very Monti girl knows from personal experience the value of the Sponsor organization, which helps new students to meet friends and to adjust to college life. From the middle of the summer when friendly and encouraging letters from her Sponsor begin to appear in the mailbox to the end of the school year, each new student feels that her Sponsor is a personal friend to advise, to assist, and to reassure her.

Although each girl is pictured as a representative of one ideal,she personifies each and every one of them. DIGNITY This is a quality of reserve which comes with emotional, intellectual and social maturity. Dignity is always reHected in the recognition of the fitness of things and in the poise and self-confidence with which one places one’s self above that which might be considered unseemly. BF.AUTY Within each girl is the power to recognize and appreciate the beauty of everyday experiences. Life is filled with beauty if one is sensitive to it and eager to find it—if one’s eyes are trained to see, one’s eyes to hear, one’s heart to understand and one’s mind to remember. LOYALTY One of the most important of the Monticello Ideals is a deep-seated loyalty to the college, one’s friends, one’s family and one’s own beliefs. This deep-seated emotion will grow through understanding, respect and love. WISDOM As the Monticello Girl grows in academic stature she seeks to increase her ability to apply her knowledge usefully, for wisdom is the union of knowledge and understanding. SF.RN ICI . F.ach of us has a distinctive personality and unique talents. The Monticello Girl considers it not only a privilege but a responsibility to share her gifts with all, thereby helping herself and others to develop to the fullest measure. DF.MOCRACY The truly democratic person interests herself in the activities of others. She seeks to understand and respect the ideals and beliefs of her associates while maintaining her own independence of thought anil action. I RIF.NDSHIP Many of your most cherished and lasting friendships will be made while you are at Monticello. our college days will afford rich opportunities for making a wide circle of friends. In true friendship there is dignity, beauty, loyalty, service, democracy, and never-failing consideration. When these ideals have become a part of you, you will have formed an understanding and appreciation of yourself and others. You will have built a strong foundation for living, and Monticello will always be a part of you, for these arc the things for which this College stands.Alice Walls 89Democracy Jo Ellis 93Ronnie Gilmore ‘ 4Wisdom Pat Scott• - uavis, Stevenson, Brown, B.
