JOSEPH ' S COLLEGE LIBSABY BROOKLYN, N. Y. foreword Footprints ' 54 is a record of college activity. But more than that it is a picture of life at a liberal arts college of today. This year, the Footprints staff has endeavored to show how the tradition of the liberal arts college, developed and modified, has come to us from across the span of centuries. This tradition began in ancient times. During the exodus of the Jewish people from Egypt, God gave them a pillar of fire to guide them through the desert and the Ten Commandments to guide them through life. It was in the Greece of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle that men began, in earnest, the quest for knowledge and truth through the study of history, rhetoric, mathematics, and especially philos- ophy. Nor was the physical side of life ignored. For the Olympic games of Greece had a sacred signfi- cance, and a sound mind in a sound body was the credo of the age. After the birth of Christ, men like Augustine, Abelard and Thomas Aquinas developed a system of philosophy whereby all men might better realize the ultimate truth of earthly being and thence proceed to a greater understanding of God. At this time, too, the other arts and the sciences were acquir- ing added depth and perfection. The rise of Medieval Universities brought this body of liberal arts to- gether, and many laymen .and clergy flocked to Universities, both as teachers and students. The Renaissance contributed much to the arts, and also gave rise to a wider interest in learning. Universities grew in size and number. And it was at these Universities, filled with brilliant and ever- seeking minds, that the torch of learning was held high, and passed on across the years to the liberal arts college of the present. So it is that we participate in this rich heritage of culture, knowledge and custom. It remains for us, the students of a typical liberal arts college, to use it humbly and well to promote the objectives of St. Joseph ' s College — the advancement of scholarship, the fashioning of a Catholic woman, the service of this Republic, and the perfection of humanity. Contents ADMINISTRATION Page 6 ACTIVITIES Page 20 SENIORS Page 48 UNDERGRADUATES Page 82 Dedication Because of her devotion to St. Joseph ' s and her untiring efforts on our behalf, the Seniors have chosen to dedicate this book to Sister Charitiua, Dean of Women. Although her motto has always been to do much and ask nothing by way of earthly recognition, we feel she has become too distinctive a part of the College to let her work %o unnoticed. For over twenty-five years she has inspired, guided, and defended the students of St. Joseph ' s and the traditions for ivhich this school has stood. That God may grant Sister many more happy years is our sincere prayer - „ ;QC1 ST.

Student Government Student government at St. Joseph ' s aims at developing school spirit and responsibility through active self-administration of college affairs. Every girl is a member of the Undergraduate Association and has equal voice at its monthly meetings. Led by its officers, the Association ' s gov ernment operates through an elective council. Im- portant phases of student life are regulated through subsidiary committees. The Exam Committee ad- ministers all examinations under the honor system. The Attendance Committee controls absence and cuts. The Extra-Curricular Committee systemizes the activities of clubs. There is also a General As- sembly Committee which keep our weekly G. A. interesting, informative and entertaining. Through democratic exercises of her rights and privileges, each student is responsible not only for her own activities, but also for the well-being of the entire group, and the joint attainment of a satisfying college life. Left to Right: J. Shretlen, L. Cardone, M. Connolly, F. E. McGuire, M. Shea. 22 The Exam Committee works hard at distributing all hour quizzes and final examinations. Since we have the honor system, they also hear appeals on violations of rules. The Attendance Committee keeps track of all absences and latenesses during the term. They hear appeals on cuts in our accredited classes. Attendance at extra-curricular functions is checked by our Extra-Curricular Committte. No credit is given for activities which a student overcuts. Qlee Club Concert Last May the Glee Club presented its annual Spring Concert, a varied program of selections chosen to please all musical tastes. Opening with the rendition of several religious pieces, the concert continued with a group of secular and novelty tunes, delightful solos by Jeanne Cushing and Jean Haslam, and a thrilling duet for two pianos by Father D ' Ecclesiis and Anne Marie Slavin. Finally came the popular songs of today. The girls concluded the evening with the lively tune It ' s a Grand Night for Sing- ing — a statement with which the capacity audience heartily agreed.

Zhe play ' s the thing The Modern Dance ■ Club and Chapel Players both put on shows for us this year. In its first recital the Modern Dance group gave a wonderful per- formance, one worthy of Broadway. They proved the ingenuity of the students to interpret and construct intricate dance routines. Chapel Players also entertained us several times during the year — each presentation proving a great cleverness and adaptability of St. Joseph ' s students. The Chapel Players present their Christmas Play Star Song at the December General Assembly. 25 An Afternoon out? See M. Feeney, K. Johnson, and L. McGuire. All that Glitters M. Connolly. A.

K ridge Club Last May, in the school auditorium, the Religion Committee sponsored its Through The Looking Glass Fashion Show and Bridge. Under the able direction of fashion commentator Mary Schlusser, a group of Saint Joseph ' s girls modeled, with profes- sional poise, an array of lovely clothes for all occasions. All this, plus refreshments, and the raffling off of the Sweepstake-Prize, a ster- ling silver service, added up to a very successful and thoroughly enjoyable evening. The Workers; N. Rementena, V. Bradley, D. MacVeigh, E. Savino and M. Schlusser. ye Freshmen scan the bulletin board to see in which rooms their classes are being con- ducted. Orientation week is a time of introduc- tion, explanation and assimilation. The new student is made aware of the many varied activities with which she will come into contact in the ensuing four years. The program consists of a well mixed combination of welcoming speeches and descriptions of student government, clubs, plans, organizations and customs. Luncheon and entertainment provide an enjoyable diversion from the inevitable entrance tests. The adoption ceremony and Frosh-Junior Tea conclude the program. At some invisible point the heterogeneous group is replaced by a welding together of its members, from which emerges a new Freshman class. Before the beginning of each semester, the incoming Freshmen are welcomed by their Junior sisters. Orientation and Investiture Each September, Father Grady presents to every Freshman her academic cap which has been blessed at the Investiture Ceremony. The crown has been placed on the head of President of the Undergraduate Association. The ' prayer bell rings at five to the hour. Our Lady by the Among the spiritual activities of the Religion Com- mittee at the college are: the May Crowning, Benediction, First Friday devotions, and the prayer bell. The crown- ing of the Blessed Virgin takes place on the campus on the first Monday in May. Hymns are sung and the Rosary recited together with a prayer of dedication to Mary. The crown is placed on the statue by the Under- graduate president. Benediction is given daily at the Holy Hour in the chapel. An Evening With Christ ' is held on the First Friday of each month at which exposition of the Blessed Sacrament is held with the students forming an honor guard. Prayers are recited each day at five minutes of every hour by a member of the Religion Committee. These prayers are said over the microphone, with a special dedication for the hour. The signal for the start of these short hourly devotions is the familiar prayer bell at which each student puts aside her daily problems to devote a moment to Almighty God. Above, right: On Dies Orientales, we had a Mass in the Armenian rite. We are privileged to have a daily Holy Hour here at St. Joseph ' s. An eager audience awaits the beginning of the enter- tainment on Parent ' s Day. The faculty greets our par- ents after the entertainment. Parents Day Last fall, the college again observed its annual Parents ' Day. This major school event was attended by students, faculty, and of course, our parents. It is one of those rare opportunities for all these groups to meet. The day is characterized, first of all, by entertain- ment in the form of a skit prepared by the Dra- matic Society. Needless to say, this is to show curious parents exactly why they so seldom see their daughters before six P.M. Parents ' Day also features the installation of the new members into Delta Epsilon Sigma. This was done solemnly with an escort of student council and faculty members in academic robes. The ceremony was keynoted by an address from Sister Alice Francis of the Child Study Department. Later, there is an opportunity for parents to meet one another when refreshments are served in the gym. This year, after tea, sandwiches and conver- sation, we left, feeling very proud of our parents, our friends and our school.

Our prize varsity team is flanked on either side by Ann Bauch, manager, and the coach, Miss Ward. Our varsity did a tremendous job this year. Good teamwork, excellent players, and the best in coaching brought us a top season in which we lost only one game out of eleven. Miss Ward coached our stars into their vic- tories after many hours of practice. The All- Stars of this year consisted of Mary Engel- skirger, Peggy Ansbro, and Ruth Grennan as forwards, and Eve Birnkammer, Lorretta Crockett (Captain), and Marita Ryan as guards. Opposing teams couldn ' t come near them for skill and sportsmanship. Even our cheerleaders showed up this year in perky new outfits which certainly brightened up the sidelines. All in all, this was truly a banner year for the whole Athletic Association. Our cheerleaders add glamour to the game and really build up the team spirit. 30 31 Senior Ball They were dancing to soft music in a beautiful flower garden with a white picket fence and a huge knotty oak tree in the center, a tiny cottage in the background, and distant hills in view. This was the setting of the Senior Ball. The time — December 28th. The place — the Garden Room of the Essex House. The soft music was supplied by Lou Ross and his band. The music ranged from sweet to hot and, of course, there was the traditional engaged couple ' s dance. The crowded floor appeared as a gay profusion of color. Between dances the girls and their escorts sat at tables inside the cottage. Mary Schlusser was chairman of the Ball, and she and her committee managed every feature of the event with ease. Each girl received a lovely silver bracelet as a memento of the occasion. The entire Ball was a great success, leaving the Seniors after their last big college event with mixed emotions of nostalgia and happiness. The Seniors arrive at the ball and introduce their dates to Monsignor Dillon, our President. The Chaperones, lower right, equally enjoy themselves. t :♦ l Our Seniors and their escorts 6eem to be enjoy- ing themselves as they prepare to trip the light fantastic at the Ball. The music, the atmosphere, the beautiful gowns — all these helped to make the occasion a memorable one for all who attended. The chairman of the Ball, Mary Schlusser, did an excellent job of planning and management. She coordinated all the many facets which go to make up a memorable evening and through her committees successfully brought the evening to a wonderful conclusion. 33 {junior Prom The Class of 1955 celebrated Junior Week this year from February 1 5 to February 20. Monday was the Junior Mass and ring blessing ceremonies; Wed- nesday the Junior Banquet was held at the Hotel Granada; Thursday the Seniors treated the entire Junior Class to the theater; ' and the top off of the whole week was the Junior Prom on Saturday evening, at which our auditorium was transformed into a make-believe ballroom.

The Banquet was wonderful, say the Juniors as they pose for the photographer. 34 Couples waltz all around our transformed gym- nasium as the band plays Let Me Call You Sweetheart. Jf fowq , T)anc t e This year, for our annual sports hop, we decided to Go Dutch. Upon arriving the girls found that the Sophomores had transformed the gym into a land of wind mills and wooden shoes. We danced the Bunny Hop, to the music of Phil Simms ' excellent band, ate the delicious refreshments, chatted with our friends — all of whom looked quite different from, say, 9:00 A.M. on a Mon- day morning. Lu Cardone, Kay McMulhn, and Joan Riordan pose with their escorts. This is the hard work- ing committee. 35 Even if you can ' t make that trip to Europe this year you can still enjoy a bit of Parisian atmosphere if you are a member of the French club. These members have seen native French plays, eaten crepe suzettes at French res- taurants, and even listen to the French translations at the sessions of the United Nations. French Spanish Habia Usted Espanol 7 The Spanish club provides many activities for in- terested students. Discussions of native drama, novels, dances, and customs are held at the meetings. They are often supplemented by films and slides. It is not unusual to hear a group of our Senontas (perhaps in spirit only!) discussing the state of the world in their second language. German St. Joseph ' s German Club has a mem- bership composed of students who wish to learn more of the culture of the German people. Each year the club takes part in putting on a lang- uage entertainment for the student body. During the year, the members attend German movies, visit restaurants noted for their German dishes, and prepare an exhibit to supplement the discussions of their regular meetings. 36 The purpose of this study group is to learn in more detail about some of the many important topics connected with the young child. A topic such as retardation, a physical handicap, or a behavior problem, is presented by a well-qualified professional person at each monthly evening meeting of the group. Child study Mathematics The Math Club functions as a study club. Its main purpose is to discuss topics and show applications not covered in the classroom. There are also many distinguished guests invited to discuss these subjects and these meetings are open to all students. The objective of the club is to encour- age wide reading in mathematics. 37 The International Relations Club en- ables us to extend our knowledge and understanding of world affairs by inviting speakers from many countries to share their first-hand information with us. The highlight of the year ' s activities was the Model Security Council Session held here at St. Joseph ' s on an inter-collegiate level. Discus- sions on international affairs with other colleges are also actively en- gaged in. J+ K 0 Debate Their rostrum may only be the rec room, but our Debating Society fol- lows a time-honored tradition of resolving controversies by free discus- sion. Student body and faculty are invited to the debates at which such topics as free trade and segregation are discussed. Whether they represent the affirmative or negative side of the argument, our debators have a long record of victories in intercollegiate competition. ?. e. e. s. The National Federation of Catholic College Students has long been one of the permanent organizations at St. Joseph ' s. Membership in the N.F.C.C.S. provides the college with a clearing house of information on extra-curric- ular activities. In the past years the student body has learned much more about the action mechanism of the organization through informal talks by regional officers at our G.A. ' s. 38 What ' s new at St. Joseph ' s? Why, Quid Novi, of course! Those two latin words are the new name of the Social Science Club and translated mean What ' s New? The club carries on a variety of activities, the members ever trying to find out just what is new. They debate, discuss, and decide current national issues among themselves as well as with other schools. Quid flovi t-M-Ji Citerary Society The Literary Society meets once a month to discuss the works of vari- ous authors such as Truman Capote and Frank O ' Connor. Members may be seen browsing in the library, read- ing the book to be discussed next meeting. The primary purpose of the club is to bring to its members a richer, broader understanding of all that is important and excellent in literature. Service Social Though the members of Social Service hold no regularly scheduled meetings, they are extremely busy during the holiday season. Lists are posted on the bulletin board at Christmas time and the students sign up to buy Tommy rubber boots or Alice an apron. Christmas baskets, and Easter baskets as well, are distributed by the club members to needy families. Their charter is truly the corporal works of mercy. 39 The Psychology Club offers to those students interested in the field a program of varied and interesting ac- tivities. The members View films relat- ing to pertinent psychological prob- lems and participate in active discus- sions concerning these questions; also on the agenda are field trips, this year ' s destination being the Willow- brook School in Staten Island. Out- side speakers are frequent club guests. The group meets once a month and is under the direction of Dr. Strass- burger. Psychology Chapel Players The Chapel Players offer an opportu- nity for expression to aspiring act- resses, producers, and stage artists. Throughout the year their talent and energy are shown in their G.A. pro- grams and especially in their major production. Last year the club per- formed in Gheon ' s, The Comedian. and their production this year of Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. we ' re sure will be on the same high standard. Modern Dance The Modern Dance Club at St. Joseph ' s really came of age this year with its first major public recital. Completely choreographed and danced by the club members, the production showed their creative energy and talent and prom- ised future performances by the new dynamic group. During the year the club members also danced in G.A. programs and appeared as calypso angels at the Christmas party. The spiritual activity of each girl at St. Joseph ' s is the main concern of the Religion Committee. This body arranges for, and promotes many religious activities, centering around our Chapel. An evening with Christ each First Friday, daily Mass, and a daily Holy Hour, all are spon- sored and assisted at by Religion Committee girls. In addition, the girls provide an hourly reminder of Christ, with prayers at five minutes to each hour of the school day, said over the microphone and broadcasts to every floor of the school. An annual Fashion Show and Bridge completes the activity of this Committee which is one of the most vital at St. Joseph ' s. Religion Committee Art Club In all seasons the work of the Art Club is in evidence. It is their job to make the posters for all the different activities and they arrange all the Christmas decorations. They presented a G.A. in which they featured Our Lady ' s life in art. The work done by the club is also exhibited annually. The Glee Club, a well-known organization at St. Joseph ' s, was very active throughout the school year. The girls, directed by Father D ' Ecclesiis, entertained the new Freshmen during Orientation week, sang Christmas carols at Ft. Hamilton Veteran ' s Hospital, and participated at Commencement, and other school functions. Its main event, of course, was the Spring Concert — always one of our most eagerly-awaited events. (J lee dub Choir The Choir participates in many activ- ities on campus. Its members sing the High Masses on First Fridays, and chant the sacred Gregorian music dur- ing Passion Week services at school. This group also sings at the Baccalau- reate service. At Christmas the Choir girls don the garb of Choir boys and sing carols at the Christmas G.A. St. Joseph ' s is a member of the Na- tional Catholic Honor Society. Each year on Parent ' s Day those Seniors chosen for high scholastic achievement and outstanding character are initiated into this select group. Presented with the gold and white cloth shield of the Society, they wear it on their academic gown. This year ' s honored few are: J. Sokolowski, H. Lande, J. Mooney, C. Ortega, F. D ' Amato, and J. Alberti. ' Delta Who ' s Who Who ' s WJio Among Students in American Universities and Colleges each year makes a selection of campus leaders from schools throughout the country. Students chosen for the an- nual publication are nominated by their institutions on the basis of schol- arship, cooperation, and leadership in academic and extra-curricular activities. The girls chosen tell the story of school spirit here at St. Joseph ' s and are: C. Ortega, M. Brennan, J. Alherti, H. Lande, and J. Mooney. Merrier Mercier Circle, the school philosophical society, is open to Seniors with a high philosophy average. The members at their first monthly meeting select a topic for further discussion and pene- tration throughout the year. Santayana and Descartes are thrashed out in laymen ' s language. Developed with faculty aid, these meetings help the girls to better understand and more easily apply the fruits of St. Joseph ' s philosophy program. . Loria, the literary magazine of St. Joseph ' s, is published three times a year. The staff meets weekly to discuss topics of general interest and possible articles. The magazine is always eagerly awaited by the students and faculty alike. Thought provok ing studies on world events or philosophies, gripping fiction, fine blank verse, newsy school gab — take your choice; Loria has them all. Father Diviney and Nettie are the guiding forces behind Loria. Hard at work, the girls (with Father ' s help) produce a truly fine literary magazine. 44 Set up the kingpin! The Bowling Club is ready for action. Sponsored by the Athletic Association, it meets once a week at a nearby bowling alley. The group includes the expert, the not so expert, and the gutterball contingent. The member with the lowest score enjoys almost as much prestige and twice as much encouragement as the champ of the week. Bowling Basketball Aside from our Varsity members, we also have a club for the girls who like to play basketball but are not team members. Each week they meet in the gym and improve their skills by play- ing games among themselves. Good sportsmanship and teamwork are the bywords of this club, and they ' re will- ing to take you on any time. Softball With the first sunny days of Spring our softball team revivifies itself and you can see them once a week out on our athletic field, batting and pitching like experts. Intercollegiate games are played each year and, win or lose, the games are really exciting. And don ' t think they play in a restrained fashion; much shouting and many a scraped knee attest to enthusiastic participation. 45 Ann Smith, Editor-in-chief, and Pat Finn, Assistant Editor, work hard on yearbook production. footprints The Footprints ' 54 staff began its task in the summer of 1953. To carry through the theme of the book, extensive research had to be done for illustrative and literary features. Plans for layouts, copy content, all the thousand and one tiny details that comprise a yearbook, were discussed and resolved with the aid of Mr. Wohl of Campus Publishing Co. From the time the fall semester began until the last deadline each member of the staff workd at her particular assignment and watched Footprints grow. Footprints ' 54 is a satisfying finished produce to those who have worked on it. Certainly if effort is a measurement of success, Footprints should be on the top. Copy is industriously created and typed by our hard- working Juniors, D. Burke, C. Baumbach, E. Tyszka, and H. Garvey. 46 Copy, research, finances, and good photos are worked over by the staff throughout the term. There was much feverish activity as deadline time drew near hut all came out well. Mr. Wohl of Campus Publications poses with the Footprints ' 54 staff. Our editors are in front with their staffs backing them up. c S .-.-■ .-.- .V - : - .. tklftl. ; ' v- Lillmuh ■ !-- . ■« ' -.
