T IS WITH PRIDE and hope that we present to you the La Concha for 1940-pride in our college and its girls, whose achievements for the past year we have recorded on these pages, and hope that this book will bring to each of you a personal recollection of the school year. La Concha is the Spanish for the shell. The shell, according to popular belief, Whispers of the sea, echoes of its life which is now past. This is what we have tried to do for you through the pictures and stories that are printed here, to recall the happiness of this year and to recapture the spirit of the college. The shield of the College of St. Catherine is the emblem We have used on the cover. The shield bears three symbolsg the torch of learning, the fleur-de-lys of France Where the Sisters of St. Ioseph established their order, and the spiked Wheel of torture which fell to pieces at the touch of St. Catherine of Alexandria. Above the shield is a scroll with the college motto Progressum Tutatur Pietas. If, when you read this book now and in future years, it recalls to you the inspiration you felt as you knelt in the chapel on First Fridays, the sunshine streaming in the Windows during a late afternoon class, the thrill of your first college formal, or even just a coke in the tea room between classes, we shall have ac- complished our purpose in publishing it.
