Vice President The pattern of our way to God has been woven on the great wheel of time by many hands and by many influences. Parents, pastors, teachers, friends — all have interwoven the course of our lives thus far in countless ways. In our ma- turing years as college students, our Dean, Sister Mary James, R.S.M., has blended the threads of the passing years with the aspiration toward high ideals. In our four years here she has fastened more firmly into the pattern of our lives the golden thread of our dedication to God and His Church. Our Vice-President has shown a kindly interest in each succeeding year. Salve Regina appreciates and cherishes such never-failing support and solicitude. Mother Mary Catherine, R.S.M., Mother Assistant Provincial and former super- ior of the college, also officiates as Vice- President. ftean Sister Mary James, R.S.M., Ph.D., Dean of the college. 13

President In the course of four years we have made many friends; we have been influenced by various personalities; we have been the recipients of much in the way of unselfish devoted ' ness to our interests. To the President of our college, Mother Mary Hilda, R.S.M., we are particularly grateful for counsel and guidance, interest and advice. We are mindful, also, of the countless ways, unknown to us, in which she has endeavored to further our development culturally and spirit- ually. We realize that such solicitude is that of a mother for her children, an ever-vigilant tireless love which finds in devotedness to us a means of extending among men the glorious heritage of the kingdom of heaven. 12

Keg 1st rat and treasurer Hidden behind the scenes of our college life, and too often taken for granted, there exists a vital power which works tirelessly and willingly for our good and our progress. The members of the faculty who compose the administrative board plan and re-plan, analyze and construct many varied courses of action for our physical, mental, and spiritual welfare. For all the moments of all the hours they have given toward our well-being, we are grateful. Around the corner from the front door is an office filled with books, files, and in particular a statue of Blessed Martin de Porres. Sister Mary- Martina, R.S.M., despite the ringing phone and endless stream of mail, is never too busy to chat or find just the right solution for our difficulties. Never a moment is lost in the business office. Sister Mary Borromeo, R.S.M., our treasurer, is busy about many things — checking and re- checking in order that the college function properly and efficiently. Time between semesters has its tasks in the business world of our liberal arts program. A treasurer necessary — why yes! 14
