O ak Foreword On at least four occasions during his pontificate, while addressing social and civic groups, His Holiness, Pope Pius XII, defined the position of the young Catholic woman in modern society. “The entire problem,” he said, “resolves itself into preserving and aug- menting that dignity which woman has received from God, especially under the conditions prevailing in society today. Never in the history of humanity have events required on the part of woman so much initiative, sense of responsibility, fidelity, moral strength, and so much spirit of sacrifice and endurance.” We have chosen the “Role of the Young Catholic Woman” as described in the Holy Father's addresses as the theme of the 1954 Courtier in order that we might show how the training received at Georgian Court College fits us to accept his challenge. The basis of a woman's answer to this challenge is a solid personal spiritual life. Here at Georgian Court we have acquired an education which enables us to distinguish between truth and error, good and evil, right and injustice. We have become well versed in the liberal arts, and yet prime emphasis has always been given to spiritual and moral values. We have learned to participate intelligently in public affairs, as advocated by His Holiness, as well as to dedi- cate ourselves to God and our neighbor in a Christian home. With the pure sentiments of love and fidelity planted firmly in our souls, we cou- rageously go forth to impart to others the truths that have been given so prodigally to us.

Not poetry nor prose nor profusion of language can describe those attributes which have endeared you, our Dean of Students, to the hearts of all of us. Led ever onward and upward by your virtuous example, we shall always remember the understanding and kindness we experienced under your guidance. In heartfelt gratitude we dedicate this, our life at Georgian Court, to you, dear Sister Mary Placidus. idus, M.A. ister Mary Plac = SVTy sl El Lai a eaasls Conception A Radiant Crown In recognition of the centenary of the definition of the dogma of the Immaculate Con- ception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Catholics the whole world over have been called upon by His Holiness, Pope Pius XII, in an encyclical entitled Fulgens Corona, to observe this year of 1954 as a year dedicated to Mary. One hundred years ago the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception proclaimed that the Blessed Virgin Mary “in the first instant of her conception was by a singular grace and privilege of Almighty God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the human race, preserved exempt from all stain of original sin.” Many things should be sought through the Blessed Virgin in this holy time: the pro- tection of youth, the flourishing of domestic life, bread for the hungry and justice for the oppressed. Most of all, prayers should be offered for the revival of peace, charity and jus- tice among men and nations with the return of all men to Christ. May the graces obtained through this devotion to the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary bring a benediction of peace and love to all men of all nations. May the radiant crown of glory—fulgens corona—with which the most pure brow of the Virgin Mother was encircled by God, shine ever more brilliantly in this, Saint Joseph Foster father of the child Jesus... patron of family life. . . vigilant guardian of terraced lawns . .

The title of “Catholic woman” bestowed upon us through the gift of faith is one of which we are extremely proud. Without your help and love, dearest Mother and Dad, we would not be able to enjoy the honor of this title. You have so lovingly and willingly taken care of our spiritual and temporal needs for all of our lives. With your help we have been guided according to right reason and logical truth. You have sacrificed so many things that we might be able to possess much. You have encouraged us in our disappoint- ments, you have counselled us in our problems, you have taught us always to choose the good and true. By your prayers you have given us the renewed strength to face each day with hope and without fear. May we be worthy of the trust you have placed in us! 35 36 Emily Terese Balmert, B.S.

Innes, C, Collis. : As we sit here at the top of the undergraduate ladder of success, we find ourselves invariably looking back at the steps we have climbed. When our memories gaze over our four years of college life, there are many things which stand out in sharp relief. With all allowances for items of special personal importance, many events have a definite spot in the minds and hearts of the entire Class of 1954. Such events serve to remind us of our advance from critical freshmen, to superior sophs, to revolutionary juniors, to sad, re- sponsible seniors. Cap and Gown Undoubtedly, one of the best times for storing memories is fresh- man year. Although the same activities take place over and over again, it is only once that they are viewed through the awed and fervent eyes of a frosh. Time will never dim the mixed feelings we all had that September afternoon when we were first introduced to the ways of a Courtier. The seniors tried their best to make us feel at home, but we were so very, very green. Our big sisters also tried Class officers Audrey D’Ambrisi, Carol Collis, Joan Rooney to calm us down and explain that Court life was not as complicated and Marge Hoyas, out for an afternoon walk. as it might seem. i d Nancy, Shirley and Arlene complete preparations mate Reel Ge Wark ea ‘ for party given by El Cervantes Club.

They must have been right for on October 19 we gave our memor- able performance of Freshman Talent Night. We were still running in high gear for the annual card party when our huge pumpkin booth served as refreshment center. The climax of that first autumn came one afternoon when we made our debut in our academic gowns. On the Mansion staircase our big sisters put the caps on our heads and placed the tassels at front-right. This impressive ceremony of Investiture signified that we were formally recognized as the Class of 1954, and privileged to wear the academic costume, the mark of a scholar. Now that we were well established Courtiers, we looked forward to the lighter, social side of college life. The gay Holly Hop was a perfect introduction. We felt that nothing could top the festive Christmas activities at the Court. Since no one likes to remember exams, we will skip right past. them and go on to the welcome days of retreat. The four days of silence and meditation offered a fine chance to take stock of our spiritual welfare. As soon as retreat closed, off we went to New York to make an appearance at our first college formal. The Ritz-Carlton was the perfect setting for this grand night of nights! The green line down Fifth Avenue on St. Paddy’s Day, the circus tent of Soph Weekend, and the Irish theme of the musicale are all important remembrances from Freshman springtime. Very special “Won’t you buy some delicious fudge?” ask the card party booth committee, M’Lou waits for the mail. Curtain going up! efforts were put forth in preparing our farewell banquet for the de- parting seniors. Then, suddenly, there we were standing in the sunken garden and giving our tassels a quarter turn. The freshman trial was over and we considered ourselves to be “old time” Courtiers. Jet Slack and Peal The full advantage of being a sophomore was not felt until the following September. It was wonderful to come back to many famil- iar faces—even if we could not remember all the names that went with them. The new frosh were living reminders of all the mistakes we had made. We just smiled as we pictured ourselves in their place, and, in a way, gave thanks that those days were left behind. The first project on the agenda was to get our booth ready for the card party. Remember the pumpkins with the parsnip ears and the egg noses? We fully approved of the idea of changing the date of retreat to the end of October. It came as a welcome reprieve at a time when elasses were just about getting everyone down. The gentle- ness of Father Sherman was a soothing balm for shattered nerves. tn een Roe It is term paper time again for Santa, Lorraine, Helen and Grace. Seniors arrive early for a nine o’clock class. A big moment came when members of our class accepted an in- vitation from West Point to attend a ball at the Astor Hotel in New York. There has been a place in our hearts for the long gray line ever since. The following week found us again on the trail to the big city to go to our first Junior Prom—a privilege not ours as Frosh. Everyone enjoyed this soiree at the Waldorf-Astoria. 4 To take our minds from the rigors of exams, Sister Giovanni called a special class meeting in order to present our class pins. We chose a black diamond-shaped center with GCC in gold letters and outlined with curving lines of seed pearls. They were truly something to treasure—not only a badge of our Alma Mater, but the distinctive mark of a sophomore. Of all the things that happened during our second year at the Court, the one that remains uppermost in our minds is our magic Soph Weekend. The setting was Paris in the spring. Even the gay city itself could not offer a more exciting time than our own trans- formed Casino. oh poganti mp peceaed ili eter Ua gus The sad note of the year came at Class Night as we carried the laurel chain for our beloved big sisters. Our guardian angels were leaving us and we were faced with the proposition of having to try out our Own wings. Gold and “Jopaz When we came back to spend our third year on the G.C. campus, a different spirit prevailed. We were upperclassmen now, having come more than halfway along our climb. This fact was most fully realized as we chose our little sisters. It was our turn to guide, and we tried to be as kind and understanding as the Class of 1952 had been toward us. The card party and retreat were taken in stride with an old famil- iarity. All efforts were concentrated on making our Junior Prom the most successful ever. Our choice of the beautiful Terrace Room of the Hotel Plaza could not have been better for such an unforgettable evening. With the prom safely put away as another wonderful memory, wry everyone turned her thoughts to the coming Christmas season. This Dey cae Se eer ang year on the night of the formal banquet, Santa Claus made a special trip to the Court just to leave a package to the Junior class. An extremely important package it was though, for it contained our eagerly awaited college rings. At long last we were entitled to wear the topaz and gold symbol of a Courtier. With gay hearts we left the holidays determined to display the newly acquired gems at every opportunity. As second semester got under way we put together some thoughts and came up with an original skit for the Valentine party, presented annually by the reigning junior class. The rest of the year simply flew by. We had just about realized that the sun was not setting until after supper, when suddenly June was upon us. We crammed for exams, feted the Seniors with dinner at the Deauville Inn, and once again found ourselves on the terrace of the sunken garden. Our tassels were turned for the third time, bringing them to the front-left position—Senior Courtiers! ioe eee Sister Giovanni slides the class ring on the finger of our Junior president, Carol Collis. 140 ; These Seniors make Campus Club the winner this year in the amount of toys collected in the Michaelangelists’ drive, Ti Grace, Mary Ann, Joan, Sally and Mary Lou gather at the tree after an enjoyable Christmas banquet. Degree and Food Even before our trunks were unpacked, the halls of Hamilton and the Club were echoing with welcome reunions. One idea seemed to be uppermost in everyone’s mind, to make this final year the very best. We were determined to take advantage of our last opportunity to support every activity. The realization that we were the leading ladies on campus put a new seriousness into the class spirit. Especially during retreat did wé feel the need to outdo ourselves, this time in a strictly spiritual way. The inspiration of Father Ansbro was certainly unforgettable. Christmas, too, brought events of special significance. Long will we remember the night we sang carols at each residence house, and the grand treat we had afterwards at the Club. For the Courtier Ball, our last big affair in New York, we went back to our favored spot of the previous year, the Terrace Room. Once again its magic wove a spell. After theses were all submitted in their final form, and Graduate Record Exams were a thing of the past, minds turned to the coming Soph Weekend. Shortly afterward, the Alumnae Assocation accepted us into its fold at the annual meet- ing. Then, as happens every year, up popped the month of June. For us June meant only one thing, Senior Week. It began with the Baccalaureate exercise and became a whirl of banquets and practices. It reached its peak on Class Night and like any well planned program drew swiftly to a close. For the last time we turned our tassels, walked up the path to the eagle and planted the traditional ivy. In the afternoon our college career ended as we received our degree and academic hood.

Pennants and bedspreads were the conversa- tion of the day as we prepared to spend another year in Lakehouse and Kingscote. As the unpacking was finished we rushed to the Campus Club to meet our little sisters and give a party in their honor. Soon schedules and classes set the pace for a few weeks. Only a short while later, witches and goblins took over at the Masquerade Ball. The dance was a great success. Then we lifted our minds and hearts to God in an inspiring retreat with Father Ansbro. | Scene II: In a few weeks it was card party time and we all worked hard selling candy to our many guests. Friday, November 13, was our night to glide around the floor of the spacious Palm Terrace room in the Roosevelt Hotel to the strains of Lester Lanin’s orchestra. Every- one reluctantly danced to the fading melody of “Good night, Sweet- heart” and our Junior Prom was over. Thanksgiving soon came and we left G.C.C. for a short vacation at home. After the holidays the Court Players presented “Shubert Alley”. It was the finest performance of the season. Next came the Holly Hop where we found ourselves dancing in a winter dreamland.

We took part in the beautiful crib ceremony and later sang carols under the outdoor tree. House parties and club parties found us busy and full of the Christmas spirit. Our eyes lit up as Santa appeared at the Senior Christmas party and we received our beautiful gifts. Finally the night of the banquet arrived and, after much excitement and long waiting, we, dressed in our formals, received our Georgian Court rings. Gaily we showed them to all. How proud we were! We shall never forget December 18 when we awakened the other girls to the strains of “’Tis the Season to be Jolly” at 5:00 a.m. Vacation was here and everyone packed suitcases and traveled homeward for the holidays.

Soon came time for the Courtier Ball and once again we were swaying to the lilting music of Lester Lanin. Ah, what a gay time we had at the Valentine play and party. March seventeenth is a Great Day for the Irish and the Courtiers fell in the line of march to turn New York City green for a day. “We're really outdoor girls at heart,” say Betty Beam, Ann Tancredi, Anne Maday, and Gloria Callahan. ae 3 —T Juniors sing “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” to their little sisters, 146 “Be our guest,” say the Juniors at Lakehouse. Scene II: As the Lenten season came to a close the halls of G.C.C. were empty once again as we left for home and our Easter vacation. Then it was Spring and we were attending Sophomore Weekend. We had a wonderful time at the picnic, formal and tea dance and waved good-bye to our dates after such an enjoyable weekend. On Musicale Sunday we played hostess to our parents and friends and then, as the curtain rose, listened to the melodious strains of music. With the blossoming of the May flowers, our Queen and our Mother was crowed “Queen of the May” by our Sodality prefect in the students’ chapel. Scene III: The days flew by and soon exams were upon us. Before we had time to catch our breath the week had ended and graduation day was here. At the Moving-up exercises our tassels were turned for the last time—we were seniors now. How the years flew by! Graduation exercises brought tears to our eyes as we bade farewell to the last class who knew us as freshmen. Then we packed our trunks and traveled the long journey home until September.

As the card party approached we arranged our booth to resem- ble a large windmill. We sold chances during the card party and enjoyed the latest styles in the fashion show. Then we settled down to our books in earnest. The Lette Vhings With November well on its way, the girls eagerly awaited the nearing vacation. Chatter concerning holiday plans was the leading topic. All of us were looking forward to turkey dinner at home. The Holly Hop encouraged our Christmas spirit. As school days dimin- ished, merriment became more evident. Carolling, the exchange of gifts with our big sisters, the Senior play, the club and house parties, all made the last few days of school quite merry. During the Christmas vacation, many of us attended the Mission Ball in New York. Bernie, Carolyn and Teresa stop to look at one of the signs identifying the trees with their Latin names. It might as well be spring! “Let’s not be late for class!” “Ihe Old Year and the New After a long restful vacation we all found it quite difficult to settle down to books in preparation for the coming exams. Philosophy books were much in evidence along with language grammars and other volumes. Within a short time the exams had come and gone and we were ready to begin anew. As second semester began, plans for the Senior Prom were realized. It was really fun! Soon our feel- ing of eagerness to receive our class pins was at last satisfied. On this occasion we felt just so much more united to our Alma Mater. Blevsing the Shamrock March seventeenth, St. Patrick’s Day, brought many of us to New York to join the other colleges in the parade. Classes whizzed by, the Sopohomore Hop was just around the corner. The whole class was bustling about and all sorts of preparations were under way. Before we could catch our breaths the whole week-end was over and we could recall it only as a wonderful memory. Now that Musicale time was drawing near there was constant preparation on the part of the music students. After the performance was over we all realized that our hard work had really been worthwhile. Ballad of the End of Way Since the Marian Year was the highlight of 1954, the May Crowning held a special place in our hearts as we celebrated Mary’s month. During the Crowning we prayed for her blessing on all our campus activities. Senior week was soon upon us and with it came our exams and the conclusion of our second semester. The Senior Banquet and Class Night were quickly over and before we knew it we were at moving up exercises. These were our last few hours with our big sisters and we now in turn took over their job—big sisters to the future freshmen. That afternoon graduation saw us off again on summer vacation.

The Administration Knowledge and wisdom are the goals toward which each student at Georgian Court College strives and they are the re- wards of four years of study.

The Student Council The Student Council, intermediary between the Administration and the Student Body, gives an oppor- tunity to its members to participate actively in the government of the college. Student Council officers are outstanding Courtiers, elected by members of the student body, who act in the name of the college. A position on the Student Council is one of honor and carries with it great responsibilities. The mem- bers are trained by these responsibilities to take their position after graduation as Catholic leaders in civic affairs in their own communities. Sister Mary Giovanni, dean, and Sister Mary Pla- cidus, dean of students, are moderators of the Student Council. GRACE CHINISKI CAROL COLLIS Who's Who .

Dorothea Hayes addresses the abe Alumnae Association The Georgian Court College Alumnae Association is a loyal group of more than one thousand members, all cf whom are keenly interested in the welfare of Alma Mater. This year their interests was most clearly demonstrated by the success of the first annual Alumnae Fund campaign. The Alumnae Fund, a program of voluntary giving, has replaced the old dues system. Under this new plan each member of the Association contributes to the college whatever amount she wishes. Proceeds of the 1953 Fund appeal provided a full tuition scholar- ship, published the Court Alumnae Newsletter, and partially sup- ported the college Public Relations Office. The affairs of the Association are directed by the Alumnae Council which is made up of the officers of the Association and representatives of each chapter. Nine active alumnae chapters are in existence and plans are under way for the establishment of two others. These alumnae groups are set up on a geographic basis. Their activities in- clude Days of Recollection, student recruiting programs, luncheons, dances, card parties, fashion shows, and the like to benefit their scholarship funds. All of the well-established chapters provide a full tuition scholarship for a girl from their area. Outstanding event of the Alumnae year is reunion week end held traditionally on the college campus during the first week end in May. Special honor is given to the five year classes and a full pro- gram of events is provided by a large committee of the Alumnae and the sisters.

F The aims of the N. F.C. C. S. are to promote Catholic student unity, to acquaint students with their responsibility in assuming Catholic leadership, and to help each college in the federation in solving problems common to all. Because this year has been named the Marian Year by His Holiness, Pope Pius XII, the federation is dedicating all its works to Mary. This dedication has a special significance to Georgian Court, since, as the regional headquarters of the Liturgy Commission, it has as its special task the promotion of the understanding, appreciation, and active partic- ipation in Marian Liturgy.
