Creativity and Mastery DO, RE, ME... Seems as though some French I students hâve tired out before the song is completed. IN OU R MODERN AGE the ability to speak more than one language is of immeasurable value . A second lan¬ guage can lead to such interesting and exciting work as interpréter for an ambassador, a position on the United Nations staff, or a career in the medi¬ cal profession. To the delight of many N.D. girls, we are given the op- portunity to pursue either Latin or French in our curriculum here at Notre Dame.

Baptiste—Sophomore Homeroom C200, Latin; are doing research on their particular language. FRESHMEN LATIN I STU- DENTS are amazed to find how many English words are derived from the Latin language.
