The members of our Faculty are vitally dedicated to the advancement of our school and of each individual girl. They guide us so that we may become more knowledgeable, more aware and more mature young women. They constantly search for new methods of teaching, new advancements in their fields, and share all these with us. We are grateful for the privilege of having a Faculty with such diverse and impressive backgrounds and so devoted to us.

We Were Seniors When Sister Rita Gushue Was Appointed Director In an informal talk to the Seniors early this year, SISTER RITA expressed her phi- losophy in words similar to these: I am not a traditionalist ... I always search for better ways to accomplish something, unless I am convinced that the established way is the finest . . We have witnessed the unfolding and ap- plication of this policy throughout the year — and results have proven that it is a happy and successful one. MRS. FLORENCE MacBAIN was SISTER RITA'S Secre- tary as she had been SISTER PERPETUA'S, and her continued presence in the Office made the transition to a new Director a smooth and easy one. To members of the Faculty and to the students, MRS. MacBAIN is someone very special.
