When the recent high school graduate arrives on the campus of St. Joseph’s to begin his freshman year, he brings with him a number of rudimentary skills—a grasp of English grammar, the knack of setting up scien tific experiments, the habit of mathe¬ matical reasoning. With these tools at his disposal, it is his task during the next four years to begin to master those study disciplines that will make him an intelligent and cultured Man, a dedicated but informed Catholic, and a willing worker in whatever field he may choose as his vocation. St. Joseph’s tries to encourage him in his important task by providing a well-rounded curriculum in the arts and sciences taught by graduates of some of the nation’s finest universities. In addition, the College is constantly striving to improve the equipment of its classrooms and laboratories, and to extend the holdings of its library. With such facilities available to him for four long years, any student ad¬ mitted to St. Joseph’s can make himself, by the time of his graduation, well-equipped to face the intellectual, religious, and vocational challenges that the world will inevitably fling at him as he goes forth to determine how significant his life shall be. n
