Scholarship For Service The monthly meetings of the Cali- fornia Scholarship Federation (CSF) were enhanced with the help of the University of California Irvine (UCI). Sister Mary Raphael, the CSF moderator, began a new program this year for the CSF by having UCI program all of the meetings with many different speakers and activi- ties. Each month brought something new. Some of the activities from this year included: Dr. Helen Wild, a proffessor of Russian studies who spoke on the Soviet Union and told a few Russian jokes; a musical concert from UCI with a flute ensemble and a violin and piano duo: and also a speaker from UCI on the fun of learning new languages. Besides the students who were involved in CSF, there were nine mothers who volunteered their time to help with filing, making programs, and general secretarial work in the scholarship office. Their help was greatly appreciated by Sister Mary Raphael. Some other things which CSF was involved in that students might not be aware of were: College Day, which Sister Mary Raphael felt was very successful, Parent Information Night, the annual Fiesta in the spring, the Marion Mass, and a spe- cial field trip for CSF members. In January, the CSF held the Hon- ors day assembly to honor all the students who have achieved a 3.0 grade point average or better. They also honored the seniors who have been in CSF for four semesters and were awarded the title of seal- bearer. Said Sister Mary Raphael of the CSF, It was an excellent pro- gram with UCI arranging it. Students are encouraged to join CSF if they are able to meet the re- quirements: No D or F at a semester and a total of 10 points are needed (A=3, B=l). The subjects that are counted are math, history, science, English, foreign language, and ad- vanced courses. Three points are in- cluded in electives where homework is given, not including P.E., R.O.T.C. Typing, Drill Team, Chorus, and Band.
