'_j7.DI2t ((/LEC V S,tJye Regina Coll ege ca n boast of a most beautiful and highly unigue campus. Its siwation in the heart of the Ochre Point residential section on the famous Cliff Walk in Newport provides an atmosp here of the elite, the elegant and the gra ndiose. . The College is co mprised of eight buildingsThe M a in Building, Ochre Court, the former Goelet estate, contains the cafeteria, booksrore, commuters' lunch room and a smoker on rhe !e wer floor; the main dining room, the Chapel, the Great H a ll , and various reception rooms o n the first floor; the Chaplain's apartme nt, the offices of the administration, and classrooms 01 1 the seco nd flo or · dorm itori es and a swdent loung; o n the third floor. On the first floor of M ercy H a ll is found the gym nasium , showers, and the scienc~ a nd H o me Economics labs. The second floor co nta ins dormitOries. Moore H a ll is the id ea l co llegi ate residence. It houses approximately thirty girls 011 the second and third floors, and has large parlors for entertai ning, a music room, a kitchenette and a snack bar o n the first floor.

" A Pre pe ration . . . " College takes four vears to complete, some foolishly. ca ll it four y·ea rs "out'' of your life. But this is not so. The four years spent are the most importa nt tO the final form ation of our religious, moral and soc ial deve lopment. College is work. True, in all d :1n itio ns ·=> f the word. But the \\ ' O k and the final co mpletion of it <If 2 ber.·elicial for all. Firstly, ro ourse lv·e s-beca us e o f o ur ultimate goal, and secondly, to society-because in striving for a better individual status nawrally along the road we wou ld build a society more lit for all. But college is also a way of life. And, therefore it is not a ll work. As the saying goes, "A ll work and no play makes Salve Reg ina girls dull individua ls". We have our clubs, organizations, parties and proms. Herein lies the strands of confusion. Some feel that in order to get ahead they must join everything. The cruel catch-clubs meet at different times and it might happen that you'd find no time for study. Be Careful! College is a good way o f life; it is fun , it is work, but most of all it is a preparation. Prepare carefully!
Th e Maria Regina Sodalit y. Fxtands An Invitation Th e Maria Regin,t Sodality plays an impornnt and active ro le on the ca mpus of Salve Regina College. Its varied activities extend from plannin !i the Christmas party for the underpr iviledged children to counseling the probationers ro the Sodality. A meeting is held once a week, which includes a discussion period co ncerning spiritual matters, the recitation of Our Lady 's Office and general instruction by the moderator. The past year has seen a new a nd important addition to the Sodality, that is, the formation of the "Sodal ite" newspaper, the mouthpiece of the Sodality. The officers chosen for the coming yea r, 1959-60, are as follows: Barbara O'Brien, Prefect; Claire Shannon, Vice-Prefect ; Mary Carol King, Secretary; Ann Marie Doolin , Director of Probationers. We hope that many of the new me mbers of Salve Regina College will also b-ecome a part of the Maria Regin a Sodality.

WhyS. R. C.? Since college exerts suc h a great influence and is one o f the stro n ~ es t shaping forces in o ur lives, much d epends on our ch o ice. lt is an im powtnt choice and often a difficult one. Some times we want a confll·mation of this decision. I am e nre ring my se ni or year and T am happy and p leased with m y cho ice. Wh y? Salve R egina is a sma ll women's co llege. Wherever you go, the re is 8lways someone there to say "Hi ". There is a closeness between rhe faculty and the studen ts. They are ge nuin e ly interested in yo ur problems a nd your pleasures. I t is a Catholi c college. Thi~ is an a ll inclusive statement. There is a chape l which is always open, and a chapla in nev·e r too busy to ral k to you, and M asses ;, nd devotions thar are beneficial to all. In all rhe classes the Car bo lic viewpoint ts presented , yet o ur ed ucat io n is a libera l o ne. W e welcome you to our college, and leave you a legacy. Y o ur choi ce is the best.
