Religion develops minds, personalities The freshmen, sophomores and juniors are probing deeper into their Catholic faith as adults and less as children. Now they must use these fundamentals as a background in trying to attain a new understanding of themselves and their faith. This is achieved through various books, films, panels, and group discussion, so personal opinion may be expressed and exchanged. This year the seniors are taking Sociology instead of Religion. With their foundation of church principles, they study human groups; how they relate to one another and how they change. The Church is constantly growing and changing to adapt to the world, and no woman is complete unless she develops spiritually and ad- vances to an adult understanding of herself as a Christian.
