Student-Faculty Co-operation Dedicating their lives to the training of youth, our Faculty prepare us for the journey which lies ahead. Their experience enables them to guide others along the way that is the true way of life. Ideals of Christian living are set before us through the inspiring example of our Faculty. Students are constantly aware of the all-pervading presence of God during time spent living and studying at Regis. We are taught to do everything for Him, and by so performing our ordinary tasks, we make our lives extraordinary. By their untiring efforts to instill and maintain in us the standards of true wom- anhood, our teachers are in a large part responsible for making Regis distinctively different. Through them, and through their precepts, quietness and graciousness permeate the entire atmosphere of our college. Attitudes of responsibility and help- fulness are taught to us, as we see the sacrifices which our Faculty have made for us. Their co-operation and guidance in extra-curricular activities prove their un- derstanding of all phases of our lives. They have taught us to play together as well as to work and to learn together. The college graduate must be prepared to take part in current problems and to help in their solution. That they may teach us to make our country stronger and finer is an important aim of our Faculty. In return for the large part of them- selves which they have given to us, we have tried to show our gratitude by our esteem and respect, and most important. [ 28 ]

i hy our prayers. To give them the certainty that their work was not in vain, and to make them truly proud of us, is the desire of every Regis graduate. After receiving a background in lan- guage, literature, history and science, the Regis student dedicates her junior and senior years to her field of concentration. The languages — English, French, Latin, Greek, German, Spanish and Italian — provide graduates with a classic back- ground and prepare them for teaching, writing and interpreting. Familiarity with world problems, past and present, is gained through the study of history, economics and political science. In the fields of psychology and sociology, practical knowledge for a career of service is gained. Chemistry, biology, physics and mathe- matics instill training in accuracy and thoroughness. Future scientists and teach- ers are prepared through these courses. The pre-medical course gives to aspirants for the degree of M.D. a foundation for four years of additional medical study and internship. In the Commerce Department, students are instructed in stenography and type- writing, accounting, commercial law and office practice. These courses help them to understand the problems and techniques of the business world. Training in Home Economics provides experience for future homemakers or for careers in dietetics, designing, merchandis- ing and advertising. Courses in education, and practice teaching and field work, are invaluable preparations for the future. Throughout her four years, the Regis student is enriched by her study of religion and philosophy. A knowledge of art, music and speech contributes to her cul- tural background and makes the Regisite well-rounded.
