History Parker T. Moon ANNALES B.S., Columbia, 1913, Ph D. Columbia, 1921; Expert at the Peace Conference, Paris; Author of “Catholic Social Move- ment in France”; Co-Author with Carlton J. H. Hayes of “Introduction to World Politics.” Professor of History “Is there a great deal of romance in history?” The present-day students of New Rochelle who have studied “World Politics” at the college will readily give their affirmation to this question. The “doubt- ing Thomases” have only to witness the Tuesday afternoon rush to “the Great War,” to believe Pro- fessor Moon. Possessing a rich vocabulary, a keen intellect, and a thorough knowledge of his subject, he brings before the mind ' s eye the world’s stage of historical events, and bids fair to carry the student into the affairs of tomorrow. On account of his sense of the poetic and his sympathetic imagination, as well as his charming personality, he will always be remembered by the students and Faculty. Dr. John J. Schuler A.B., German Wallace, 1891; Johns Hopkins, 1901-1904; Ph.D. Columbia, 1908. Professor of History Here is Bacon’s full man; ready man; exact man. Eminent qualities of heart and mind and a wealth of experience make him the ideal professor. He com- mands respect because of his great and varied learn- ing; inspires through his teaching, which not only illuminates his subject but creates the desire for knowledge, and convinces his students of his sym- pathy for them who are at the beginning of the long road of erudition down which he has gone so far. Dr. Schuler may be assured that those who have sat at his feet will remember him with gratitude and affection as a real teacher and a genuine man.

Seventeen ANN ALES Language Mother Loyola To describe Mother Loyola adequately! ! ! Rather impossible, for in her are blended innumerable ex- cellencies of grace and virtue which, in conjunction with the more dominant qualities of her character, make her an ever-guiding and forceful factor in the lives of all with whom she comes in contact. She is the embodiment of one of Alma Maters most cher- ished ideals— that of noble womanhood. As Asso- ciate Dean, Mother Loyola typifies a great deal more than a mere disciplinarian. To her, life has given a broader, more extensive field of work — one from which she offers us council founded on years of experience, sympathy and encouragement, as well as example and help in learning the fundamentals of that which Mother Loyola has already achieved — the character of a perfect lady. Miss Teresa Adelaide Carbonara A.B., Barnard, 1920; A.M., Columbia, 1921. Instructor in Latin Miss Carbonara came to us a few years ago — tiny, to be sure, but fairly amazing to the bewildered Latin and French students who viewed her quaint, viva- cious manner with a certain indescribable awe. A veritable Caesar she descended on her classes and, like him, she came, she saw, and she conquered. With an obvious love for the cultural as the outstanding feature in her classes, Miss Carbonara offers an efficient inspiration which results in a complete mas- tery of the subject in question by her pupils. We admire Miss Carbonara, not only for her superiority in intellectual matters but also for the complete and perfect discipline found wherever she presides. A.B., New Rochelle, 1908. Associate Dean

History Sister Gertrude B.A., New Rochelle, 1915; M. A., Fordham, 1919. Instructor in History It is most regrettable that our acquaintance with Sister Gertrude has had to be so brief, for even after a year with her we can hardly claim her very intimate friendship. True, the greater part of us have come into contact with her, if not as regards that stum- bling-block, Education, then in the mazes of Colonial and Church History. It is, then, in the classroom that we have known her best, but the year has been a short one and this is not nearly enough. For us, it has been a year filled with the pleasantest associations; for her, we cannot answer with any certainty, but we can only hope that it has left kind thoughts of us and that we have helped in some small way to make Sister Gertrude ' s initial year as instructress at the College of New Rochelle happy as well as profitable. Personnel Henry C. Metcalf A.B., Harvard University; Sorbonne and the School of Economics and Political Science, Paris; Ph.D., University of Berlin; Head of Department of Economics, Tufts College, 1900-1917; Columbia University; Carnegie Institute of Tech- nology. Professor of Personnel Administration Dr. Metcalf, though a more or less recent acqui- sition to our Faculty, has already proven himself an invaluable asset to it. A man of unusual attainment in the economic world, he has suffused our own com- paratively meager knowledge with colorful rays from his personal and altogether interesting experience. A widely known authority in Personnel work, he has written, co-operatively, one of the greatest books in this branch of economic science. Only those of us who have actually studied with Dr. Metcalf can truly appreciate his innumerable good qualities. He has given himself to the noble work of bettering society, and this in itself is our highest and most sincere tribute to him. r { S ' ] T 1 F ' f ! t VJ W 1 u , eP m -4 BS Nineteen
