Variety aids in English; French Variety was the word in the English department as several areas were explored. Sr. Michaelene Prater, M.S., instructed freshman American literature, vocabulary and writing, junior composition, English literature, vocabulary and book reviews. She also taught world literature. Sr. Kathleen Cramer, N.D., department head, also taught senior classes of grammar, myths, and legends and world literature as well as sophomore American literature, vocabulary and writing. Miss Marylou Wirth taught senior grammar and children’s litera- ture. Under the tutelage of Mr. Jeff Sill, the French I and French II classes studied a variety of things about the French culture. French food was more than studied as Mr. Sill prepared chocolate mousse and cherries jubilee for the second year students. Sr. Michaelene Prater, M.S., responds to a question posed by Greg Chapek about an answer on a freshman English test. Craig Ohrroutka checks the glossary of his book, Scenes et Sejours, to verify an answer on a French II worksheet. 26 English French

Neumann faculty members are more than teachers, they are exam- ples. They helped students to mature and develop a sense of self-worth. By guiding the students through academic endeavors, the faculty helped each to set goals for them- selves, adding a burst of energy when needed. Although there were cries of “when will this homework ever end? and can’t I please drop this course?” students later admitted that the encouragement was appreciated, as it led them to be better prepared in reaching the goals they had set. When awards were received, the faculty had the satisfaction of know- ing that such achievement would not have been reached without their patience and guidance. The realiza- tion of the goal was the product of student and faculty HIGH ENERGY. 4 On a sunny fall afternoon.
