Christmas THE YULETIDE is many things. Most conspicuous in the workaday world of Santa Claus and exhor- tations to Christmas shopping is the secular aspect of the holiday season. In its essence, however, Christmas is, of course, a religious festival, and this sacred note most appropriately finds expres- sion in a public junior college in the music of the season. Choral and instrumental groups rehearsed the treasured songs which express Christendom ' s ancient joy in the Nativity, and performed their music before many campus and community groups. In their own churches, in the private sector of their lives, many students were further inspired with the deeper meaning of Christmas, and this, of course, increased their delight in all phases, even the secular, of the season ' s activities.
