Q' - its I ,W UH not put if in wrifing 7 Creativity was a must for anyone who wanted to be a member of either the Alethea or the Prism staff. lt was the qual- ity which helped to make both publications ones in which staff members took pride. Those whojoined Alethea, the quarterly school newspaper, were led by advisors Miss Dorleen Cialardi and Sr. Nancy Stril- lacci. At these meetings editors worked with their staffs to create articles, ranging from school issues to national controver- sies, that would interest as well as inform the student body. Prism's literary staff, with the assistance of Sr. Mary Carol Gentile, undertook the task of reading through works submitted by aspiring writers. Each member of the staff read the material, then voted on whether or not it would be kept. The works that had been approved by a majority were printed in the magazine with artwork pro- vided by the art staff. Cathy Ferrie, co-editor of Prism's literary staff, enjoyed her work. 'llt was very inter- esting to discover the talent of my class- mates by reading their work. But she ad- ded that it wasn't an easyjob. 'Sometimes there were just so many good pieces, but only a certain number could be printed. Thats when the difficult decision-making came in. Prism and the Alethea required staffs that were patient and dedicated to hard work. But when the publications came out, it was evident that all those virtues had paid off. SME? 51 Sting?
