Latin classes although not large, still draw girls to the ancient language of the medieval scho- lars and philosophers Latin - the basis for many modern languages is still a part of the cur- riculum here at Notre Dame. Sister Mary Immaculate, an authority with many books to her credit and a PhD guides Latin students through the maze of roots, trans- lations, and tests. Even though only a few students ch- ose the course, Latin is still an important part of some N.D. students' studies. t +L,-X .-.. w..VNJ::' 5 Y i-xg -it L' , ' .7 ' N N . '. rf.

The best description would probably be German I, II, III, IV. Cor- rect pronunciation and an excellent memory were two special requirements for every German student. Listen- ing exercises, dialogues, and written assignments comprised a large part of a hard-working student's homework. Classroom practice and frequent tests kept every girl on her toes and thinking all the time. For practice and skill, students also engaged in the reading and writing of german poetry and other forms of litera- ture. As always, translation of these forms was a popu- lar learning process too.
