1 Sister Marie Therese gives Joanne Markowiak special hints for next year's college plans. SISTER MARIE THERESE, R.S.M. Guidance Director, Religion, Sodality Religion and Quidance Direct Each Student The keynote of McAuley's religion course stems from man's tremendous yearning for happiness. The four-year program of instruction entitled Our Quest for Happinessf' embraces the Fresh- men who are drawn by the creative love of the Father, the Sophomores who are awed by the redeeming love of the Son, the Juniors who re- spond to the sanctifying love of the Holy Spirit. The Seniors culminate their study with reflections of the beautifying love of the Blessed Trinity as they march toward their eternal commencement. Some of the Senior activities include booklets on the Ecumenical Council and Privileges of Mary, reports on Communism, social justice, and various other related topics. Each week Seniors have the opportunity of a class with either Father Lamentia or Father Reichert to discuss many helpful and practical topics concerning their future plans in the religious, married, or single state. The Department of Guidance develops a phi- losophyf' Since Catholic educational philosophy stresses the sacredness of each person, Catholic Guidance aims to assist each student with her educational, vocational, personal, and social proh- lems so that she may successfully adjust both to school and to life. McAuley's Guidance Department keeps records of the progress of each student. These include cumulative reports of grades, referral slips for teachers, and free guidance literature. The de- partment collects and distributes free educational and occupational information, Academic depart- ments are encouraged to plan group projects to acquaint students with available guidance liter- ature. A very important function of the Guidance De- partment is the setup of a standardized testing program. This program includes intelligence, apti- tude, and achievement measurement. Test results are interpreted clearly and confidentially for each student. The Guidance Department sponsors special pro- grams for the student body. An activity of this na- ture was Career Conference Night, held in Febru- ary, to acquaint students with job opportunities in various occupational fields. McAuley's Guidance Department assists gradu- ates to find full-time employment. Undergraduate students are given part-time and summer jobs. Placement services include filling out job order cards, screening applicants, and checking on job progress. Sharon Daley, Kathleen Biggs, and Isolde Wrob- lewski discuss the Ecumenical Council in senior religion class.

McAuley's Department of Fine Arts includes glee club, speech, orchestra, drama, and art. Glee Club members participate in many school assemblies. One of their traditional activities is Christmas caroling at the hospitals and other in- stitutions. McAuley's drama productions this year included the Senior class play, The Young and Fair, and Jo's Boys, the first presentation by the Drama Club. Speech courses give students practical experi- ence in all aspects of public speaking along with the opportunity of participating in informal produc- tions. Speech may be substituted for the fourth year of English by students who do not plan to enter college. An artist cannot make good things, or produce good works of art if he himself is not good. If Christ dwells within him, he will produce in his daily life, works which will draw others to Christ. This is the theme of McAuley's Art Department, where Students strive to achieve the best for God's glory. SISTER MARY IMOGENE, R.S.M.
