Iudging from their records as honor students while at the college, we would say that they can attribute their present success as instructors to their thorough work as stu- dents. Sister M. Corita, Sister M. Irene, Sister M. Ioseph Mark, Sister M. Rose de Lima, Sister M. Theodore, and Miss McGurli have had the distinc- tion of bei11g connected with the college both as students and as faculty members. In the fall of 1936 when the college buildings were completed, Father Teulings assumed his post as col- lege chaplain, after having been for eight years pastor ot St. Iohnis Parish in Watertown. I11 the same year Sister M. Consilia came to the college to teach chem- istry and physics, Sister Sarah to teach Latin and Greek, and Father Miller as lecturer in religion. Since the new buildings had a growing library, Sister Marie CICIIIIC was appointed librarian. Under her careful supervision and with her special ability to plan for the future, the library has developed i11to one exceptional for a college of this size. The follow- ing year the physical education department was re- organized. Miss Emily White, who had been in- structor oli modern dance al the Yale School of Drama, directed not only modern dance classes, but also other athletic activities. The students have been fortunate in having Miss FACULTY SISTER NIARY AGATHA, B.A., 1923, Catholic University, R1.,1., 1929, Fordham Univer- sity.
