Among Nordhoff's finest traditions is the annual presentation of the Christmas play, A Miracle For Mary. Brief in onstage time yet infinite in theme, this dramatic vignette sends Nordhoff students home for the holiday full of reverence and hope for fellow men. Each year under the inspired direction of Miss Elizabeth Harris, a group of untried students rise to give sensitive and competent portrayals in their few moments of presence onstage. It is a unique experience for those chosen to be in the cast, a continuing plea- sure for those in the audience who look forward to seeing it at the beginning of each holiday season.
