Boosters Bring College To We the students of Assumption High Soon to college must apply We know not where, or how, or when, But that’s where College Night comes in! This year on Wednesday, October 15, at 7:30 Assumption high school’s annual College Night will take place. A college atmosphere will be enacted when over 40 colleges, universities, technical colleges, and nursing colleges will send representatives to the event. Being sponsored by the Boosters Club again this year, a rewarding night is in store for everyone. Sophomores, jun- iors, and seniors are invited to come, compare, and judge the colleges so that they can make a good decision on a specific college. Again this year the colleges will be in seperate rooms and all will be on time schedules. This enables the rep- resentative to start his presentation at a certain time for one group of people. Fr. Charles Mann, boys’ division vice- principal noted, “The system worked well for the colleges that used it last year, and we hope it will work again this year.” Three new additions arc foreseen in this year’s schedule. Those schools are: The College of St. Benedict, St. Joseph, Minnesota, Loras College, Dubuque, Iowa, and Edgewood College of the Sacred Heart, Madison, Wisconsin. Besides Marycrest and St. Ambrose, to which most AHS graduates apply, there will be other schools which have participated in College Night before. Among these are: John Carroll Univer- sity, Cleveland, Ohio; Western Illinois University, Macomb, Illinois; Ottumwa Heights Junior College, Ottumwa, Iowa; Loyola University, Chicago, Illinois; Rosary College, River Forest, Illinois; High School St. Mary’s College, Winona, Minnesota; and St. Thomas College, St. Paul, Min- nesota. Refreshments will be served in the cafeteria during the evening. Knite Lite s I’ll bet everyone’s eyes were on Sr. Mary Ambrosina, BVM, when she said, If you’ll pay attention, I’ll go through the board.” • • • Four for ’64 was the call when Tom Gehlsen and Tom Ketelar found voca- tions as diocesan priests and entered the seminary at St. Ambrose last month. Jo Ann Machol joined the Urse- line community in Cleveland while Mary Beth Coleman entered the BVM’s. ♦ • Did anyone notice the blond sopho- more boy vainly trying to hide his scarlet and orange potted marigold as he came in the door early last month? • • Tuesday, September 8, during eighth period the senior boys began their guidance program. Throughout the year on the first Tuesday of each month the Boosters club has planned vocational talks for them. • • • As the seniors are now in their last year at AHS the CEEB (SAT) and the ACT tests are approaching. Below is a schedule for registration and admini- stration of these tests: CEEB: Test date: Nov. 7; Registration: Sept. 8 to Oct. 10. Test date: Feb. 20; Registration: Nov. 9 to Jan. 23.
