mQ t.4t .. f. .. with Lady Macbeth CILASSIICAIL CQURSIE If a student's desires and talents indicate a tendency toward a career in the professions, St. Xavier offers him a course preparatory to law, medi- cine, or the priesthood. Aside from the normal studies of history, English, mathematics, and science, the Classical Course consists of four years of Latin, and two years of Greek. Cicero, Virgil, and Homer open new treasures of literature-thus helping the student to share with some of the greatest minds in a profound understanding of human nature. Besides this, the extreme accuracy demanded by the grammar and syntax of these languages prepare the student to use his mind accurately in solving problems parallel to those he will meet in later life. These studies discipline the mental processes. Hence, if a young man graduates from St. Xavier with a classical diploma, he is well prepared for a professional career. And should he choose another Field, he will bring a well-trained mind to his future work. Religion is the backbone of all our courses here at St. Xavier. Above, Fr. Ronan conducts a review in the Religion class. The Bard of Avon is a must for all seniors. But some- times even the simple sayings must be keenly analyzed as Mr. Savage explains.
