Religion looks beyond a dream to life Creating a basic awareness of mankind and its problems, re- ligious studies spark an interest in all students. Because of the variety in each elective course, students have an opportunity to choose a class to which they can relate successfully. Problems from abortion to pollution are throughly discussed in Social Problems class. Philo- sophy stresses understanding the differences within ethics and moral responsibility. For students who wish to gain insight and understanding of their own relig- ion, there are course offerings in Christian Living and Comparative Religions. The offering and cele- bration of Mass strengthens the bond of unity among individuals and classes. Bread and wine offered at Mass draws each student into unity from which he draws strength. During her Comparative Religion class, Sister Elizabeth Doyle inquires about the significance of Hindu painting. , “You know,” says Father Brian Harring- ton, Feehan’s new chaplain and reli- gion instructor.
