Into Extra currzcular Sounds Extra-curricular activities produce many sounds: sounds of happiness, victory, defeat, en- thusiasm, and discovery. It might be said that these sounds take over when the final bell rings, signaling the end of the school day. Then it's time to head for home with friends who are bubbling over with talk of classes, clothes, records, and dates. Such sounds might be heard at a club meeting where the exchange of ideas is in progress. Also included are the seasonal sounds, such as the Senior Trip, when the students see and hear gov- ernment in action, the mock election, during which time the parties sound off, the intramurals, when class spirit overflowsg and the dances, which produce a musical mood. 7

M inds, Hearts Trcmspose Praise To God Into Spiritual Sounds With its many characteristic sounds, the spiritual life of SUA is of primary importance. The conversation that takes place in the chapel between God and the students during Mass is first and foremost in each girl's life. Spiritual sounds can be detected away from school, too, when the perfections of Our Lady are heard in homily at the pilgrimage to Ladyglen. During the holiday season, anxious ears listen eagerly at the Christmas assembly as the traditional story of Christ's birth is again retold. With the new semester comes a lack of sound as retreat, the time for thought and the chance to talk with God and receive His answer, takes over. Lent, with its flood of silent penances and petitions in prep- aration for Easter joys, soon follows. As the school year nears the conclusion, sounds of Our Lady's praises are heard as the students burst forth in song to her at the annual May Crowning. 8
