In the fertile field of the Feehan community, a Freshman seed is planted. What makes this seedling grow into a Shamrock? Besides the caring and sharing community, there is a combination of special events. It’s the pride of watching class floats roll down North Avenue towards victory, in anticipation of defeating Case Cardinals in the Homecoming game. It’s the suspense of waiting to know who will be Homecoming Queen; of worrying about a test on Monday; of wondering what an Echo Retreat is really like. It’s the disappointment of missing a date for the weekly dance; the joy of going to the big game with that special someone; that inner good feeling of making some needy family happy with an overflowing Thanksgiving basket. It’s sweethearts swaying to the songs of Mike Thompson Sound or MacPhearson Strutt at the Prom or Social. It’s watching ‘’Father’’ Guido Sarducci bombarded with pennies at an evening of “culture’’ — if we can call the Big Event culture — and other students display their varied talents. It’s the Seniors’ sense of accomplishment as they march down the aisle to the strains of “Pomp and Circumstance.” It’s the comic relief on this solemn occasion when graduate, Mike DiPietro, gave the Bishop a hug! Finally, when diplomas and yearbooks have been put away and the last good-byes have been said, the seedling so carefully nurtured has now become a full-fledged Shamrock, richly carpeting its new world. The cause. . .Student Life! Freshman spirit starts out strong at the Student Council’s Freshman Seminar, with help from Frank Mitchell, seated with Freshman Erin Kelly, Michael Guerin, Sharon Carey, Maryanne Cady, Denise Cave, Mary Green, and Debra Goffart.

Socializing Takes Over After the cafeteria had been turned into an elegant “dance hall’, nearly 200 couples arrived for that special night in their Freshman and Sophomore years, the Social. Girls in their gowns and flowers, boys with manners and three piece suits, experienced a night to remember: a night of shyness, laughter and dancing shared with special friends. As MacPherson Strutt began to play, the tension eased and the couples were less shy. The band played a wide variety of both slow and fast numbers to suit all tastes. Faculty members, too, got caught up in the music. When the line for the pictures had diminished, the band played the theme song ‘We've got Tonight’’. Taking a break from the crowded dance floor are Tina Perry, Allison Green, Katie The couples moved towards the dance floor and all feelings of apprehension had disappeared. After the Social, most couples went out to eat. Food choices ranged from Italian food at Papa Brillo’s to Polynesian food at the Mon Kou. An enjoyable dinner ended a memorable evening. The theme song was appropriate, for they did have the night. Hartly, her date, and Daniel Killion. Precious and few are the moments Kristen Felici and Peter Luongo share at this special event.
