The late Rev. Thomas P. McLoughlin was its first mod- erator. Miss Anna McLaughlin, now Sister Cephas, held the Presidency. Two days of each scholastic year are set apart as Sodality Days. The first is December 8th, on which day, after a Solemn High Mass in the college chapel, the new r aspirants are received into the Sodality. In the evening the Sodality Ball is held in Maura Hall. The second day comes early in Commencement Week and on that day comes the reward, in the form of a gold cross, to those Seniors who have faithfully attended Mass on the required number of w r eek days during four years and who have lived up to the rest of the Sodality rules. This custom originated in 1908 wdien Miss Dorothy Brosmith, ’ll (now r Mrs. William McEvoy), was President. The Sodality is the most flourishing organization in college and is the means of inculcating in the students those virtuous daily habits wdiich in after life mark our graduates as true Catholic w r omen and as w T orthy representatives of N. R. C. 1 7

The object of the Board is “to represent the students in the government of the College and to further in every way the interests of the students.” The Mistress of Discipline and her assistant, two Seniors, two Juniors, one Sophomore and one Freshman composed the first Board. In 1911 the Board was enlarged to include the Mistress of Studies and the Day Scholar Representative. Today the Board includes all the original number and has added the President and Vice-President of the Fresh- man Class, two extra Senior Members and two Sophomore Members. 19
