SISTER M. PAULA, O.S.F. To some is given the ability to select a single aim toward which they can work with unceasing vigor and enthusiasm. When the goal so chosen is connected with the progress of Rosary Hill College, it can find its expression in a whole hearted devotion to the students; for the most concrete testimony of the worth of a col- lege is to be found in its graduates.

Her task would be relatively clear: by being a guide and source of ideas for stu- dent activities, by helping girls lost in the confusion of immaturity find them- selves, and by opening doors of wonder to students caught by the power of her imaginative teaching, she would be a day-by-day inspiration to the young women of Rosary Hill. Many people are directing their efforts to the progress of Rosary Hill. Because one of them has unknowingly become an examplar of such devotion through her vital interest in the students, we, recog- nizing the great part she is playing in the achievement of Rosary Hill College, ded- icate the i960 Summit to Sister M. Paula —friend, educator, dean, confidante, idealist, administrator.
