NFCCS Reorganizes; Plans for Congress Cancelled by Officers The Marian Congress, previously scheduled for Dec. 7 at Mundelein, has been cancelled indefinitely. The NFCCS in the Chicago region, now in the process of reorganizing its basic structure, is abolishing all com missions beginning Jan. 1. In antici pation of this reorganization, Mari ology commissions on most Chicago campus have already ceased to func tion. Since the primary purpose of the Congress was to unite com missions from the various cam puses, the need for the Marian Congress no longer seems to exist. Sodalists from regional campuses have been invited to attend a three- day Advent weekend at Notre Dame university Dec. 6 to 8. Since the Mari ology commission on most Chicago campuses was sponsored by the So dality, the need for the Congress is further obviated. Information regarding the Notre Dame weekend may be obtained from Nancy Scanlon or Mary Fulgaro.

During her three-year term of office she la bored to increase the educational prestige of Mundelein, a work be gun by her predecessor, Sister Mary Justitia. Sister Mary Consuela attracted to the college a group of outstanding lay professors, at the same time releas ing from classes a number of Sisters to study for advanced degrees. In 1938 Mundelein was admitted to membership in the American Asso ciation of Colleges, and Mundelein students were affiliated with the na tional honor society, Kappa Gamma Pi. Sister Mary Consuela supervised the organization of faculty commit tees and prepared to apply for mem bership in the North Central Associa tion. The college was accredited by North Central shortly after her re tirement in 1939. New customs introduced within the college during Sister's term of office included beginnings of the Freshman Orientation program, wearing of academic dress by sen iors to formal assemblies during the year, and the Parent-Daugh ter Day early in the fall. Mundelein also became one of the first colleges in the Chicago area to offer a course in Papal Encyclicals, a move which merited a letter of ap proval from the Holy Father, Pope Pius XI. A native Chicagoan, Sister Mary Consuela served as principal of Im- maculata high school from 1927 to 1933, and as principal of St. Joseph academy in Des Moines from 1941 to 1947.
