It is not the purpose of the Jesuit system to over-burden the studentg rather it strives to obtain for him a well-balanced course, from which the scholar can obtain that which is best suited to his faculties, and to the unfore- seen difficulties which may arise in life. Stress is laid on both mental and moral philosophy for the aid it affords in the development of the mind, as well as for its efficacy in obtaining an unbiased outlook on the world and life. Armed with such a complet: knowl- edge, the student is capable of entering the great battle with the worldg and by un- failing adherence to the tenets taught him, AWINQ A Y 1 Kiwis , ,sy Ricv.

Q REV. M. J. KIQNNI-Ly, S. J. q'72'COP5Al Q f 5' The College Faculty added materially to the value of education was the introduction of modern languages into the regular curriculum. Before this change was made, all branches of math- ematics, physics, etc., were studied in the original Latin. In the various Colleges in Europe there was a course arranged in such a manner as to have no high school course at all. The College comprised the secondary work and three years of Rhetoric, making a total of tive years requisite for entrance into Uni- versities. On completion of the above men- tioned course the student was in a position to attend the higher institutions of learn- ing and eventually receive his degree. In 1726 when the Society was suppress- ed in France, the Rector of the University of Paris translated the Ratio for his t'Out- line of Studies . Senior Plziloxoplzy UR, il, lomim, 5.1.

Spring Hill offers its students a com- plete education. On entering high school a student may continue through college without change of school. However, there is absolute separation of these two depart- ments, each having its own distinctive class rooms, dormitories, study-halls, dining rooms, campus and student activities. Moreover there is no overlapping of the faculty, each department having its own officers and teachers. This plan offers the student a very de- cided advantage. It secures for his course a uniformity of method which can hardly he had otherwise. It precludes interrup- tions and set backs that are all but un- avoidable when change of school and teach- ing is made. Rm. F, l'rXlfIIiXI.Xl, 5.1. Mic.
