Students always gel a belt out of Father’s class. It has been said that Ignatius offers one of the finest math courses in the area. The brilliant third place finish of three Ignatians in u state-wide mathematics competition last March attests to this fact. This success can be attributed not only to the students but also to our qualified math department that is constantly searching for current subject matter and better presentation. Better than forty per cent of our math instructors has attended universities as in-service or fellowship members. Our entire math faculty belongs to national mathematical associations. Ignatians have always rated high compared to mathematics-norms measured by national tests. Do you think Fm up here for my health? Ignatians Place Third in State Competition FR.

Quoth Mrs. Nemec, This is the only picture of Mr. Nemec in captivity. Russian And Chinese Make Languages Unique In today’s small and troubled world, foreign languages are more important than ever before. In an effort to meet these needs for understanding other languages and cultures, Ignatius’s language department included the two classical languages of Greek and I.atin and the three modern languages of French, Russian and Chinese. Latin and Greek students spent most of their time translating the works of the great classical authors: Caesar, Cicero, Virgil, and Homer. Each year translated an author of greater difficulty. French began this year as a four year course, offering a wide scope of the language and its literature. First year learned the basics, while second year started the literature study. Third and fourth years delved even deeper into all aspects of professional French. Chinese and Russian are both in their second years at Ignatius. These two languages make the Ignatius Language Department unique in the Cleveland Area. Though of tremendous international importance, they are as yet not taught in many schools. Fr.
