Graduate Serves as Lone Catholic Teacher in Town Sophomores Take Comprehensives (Continued from page 1. col. 1.1 disregarded; the test is not intended to serve the same purpose as a course ex amination in any of these subjects, but rather to measure the cultural back ground of the individual student regard less of her past studies. The filial test, given at 2 p.m., on March 16. is the Mundelein Sophomore Inventory, a locally constructed test which aims to measure certain important outcomes which Mundelein. as a Catholic college aims to achieve. It tests the student's knowledge of Christian principles of evaluation in the fields of social science, natural science, literature, and the fine arts; tests her acquaintance with contemporary Catho lic affairs and with contemporary Catho lic literature. A fourth division of the test, dealing with Catholic worship, dogma, and moral, will be given-later in the semester. All tests will be given in the auditorium. This is the third of a scries of inter view's unth alumnae who are holding significant positions in the business and professional uiorld. The first Catholic teacher in a town inevitably feels heavy responsiblities. Grace Foran '47 has taken on such a job. and finds she is very happy. Nine hundred people live in the little Illinois town,'' said Miss Foran in a re cent interview. There are 100 students in.the high school, but only five of these are Catholics. I teach four divisions of English and first-year Latin. That means five classes a day, besides my extra curricular activities. Miss Foran, who was co-editor of the Review in 1946-47, now acts as ad viser of the high school newspaper and yearbook, and coaches speech and debate students. She has directed a school play, acted in a community show, and is active in the local Junior Woman's club. There are five Protestant churches in town, said Miss Foran, and all of them have a heavy attendance. The lone Catholic church is only a mission, to which a Franciscan priest comes from a monastery 16 miles away to offer Sun day Mass. Many of the Catholics in the neigh borhood are very poor, and their child ren don't attend school. They live in the country, and come to town only for Sunday Mass. Although her religious views are not always in agreement with those of her neighbors, Miss Foran has been heartily welcomed into the social life of the com munity, and has opportunity lo acquaint people with the truth about Catholics. When I find myself in a position to express my religious views, 1 try to ex press them without being obnoxious. In the classroom, 1 try to help the students in forming moral judgments, she ob served. Miss Foran named English, Latin, and history as the courses at Mundelein which have helped her most in her teach ing career. She has found Latin and English a desirable combination in se curing a teaching position. Psychiatrists From Catholic Charities Lectures, March 16 Dr. Ralph D.
