A Life Experience: Theology Whether we define God as the simple goodness in life, a mystical force or an all- powerful spirit, we all owe ourselves answers to the questions of God. Through our theology studies we expose ourselves to a theological background basic to firm decisions. This goal is reached not merely through a typical classroom curriculum of studying the theoretical aspects of God. Freshman year exposes students to the problems of today’s society. Guidance class teaches them to know themselves and the peer pressures affecting them. Sophomore year theology compares more readily with a psychology course than a theology course. Religion and beliefs are applied to life situations in this year. Juniors study the New Testament in the context of today’s world and think about their beliefs in a complimentary course, MAKING MORAL DECISIONS. In the senior year Jesuit shows its progressiveness with service projects. Students may tutor children or work in a day-care center. Jesuit stands as one of the few high schools attempting this course. In addition senior theology reviews the church and the major religions of the world. We experience life through our theology. 20

Language And Speech: Expressing With Words To learn to express ourselves in the spoken and written word we are fortunate to have the efforts of our Language and Speech Departments. Lite rature of our America and other lands ancient and modem, stimulate lofty thoughts and ideals. Our foreign languages, French, Spanish and Latin, remind us of our heritage from other cultures. Speech teaches us to communicate our thoughts briefly and concisely. We explore the process of debate to decide issues. Debate shows us the need for discovering the facts, but stresses the importance of explaining and interpreting the facts correctly. The dedication of our teachers has brought us the power of the spoken and written word.
