^ PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOB CLASS 'T'w MERRIMACK COLLEGE II NOBTH ANDOVEB, MASSACHUSETTS TRUSTEES

The last meeting of the Trustees over which the late Very Reverend Father Pro- vincial, Joseph M. Dougherty, O.S.A., presided: Very Reverend Vincent A. McQuade, O.S.A., Very Reverend John B. Martin, O.S.A., Very Reverend James

M. Hurley, O.S.A., Father Provincial, Very Reverend Patrick J. Campbell, O.S.A., and Reverend Thomas F. Walsh, O.S.A.

Another most important milestone in Merrimack College’s brief history was reached

on April 19, 1954, when the Most Reverend Archbishop of Boston, Richard J. Cushing, broke ground for the new chapel dedicated to Christ the Teacher. Here

the Archbishop is seen with a part of the crowd present for the historic ceremonies. o The m Very Reverend Henry E. Greenlee, O.S.A., S.T.D., Rector- Provincial of the Province of Saint Thomas of Villanova, is Chair- man of the Board of Trustees. A former college professor himself before assuming high office in the Augustinian Order, Father Greenlee has manifested a strong personal interest in the development of Merrimack College.

Leo Cronin. With veterans overtaxing college facilities in the nation, the group resolved to broaden its industrial relations program, and undertake the erection of a suitable college in the north of Boston. They laid their plans before the Right Reverend, and now Bishop, Jeremiah F. Minihan, who was at that time

Secretary of His Excellency, Richard J. Cushing. They found a ready friend and ally in the Archbishop. His Excellency secured the Augustinians from Villanova to found and staff the proposed college. Under the inspiring leadership of the Reverend Vincent A. McQuade, O.S.A., Ph.D., who was designated President in December, 1946, the project was launched with the construction of a long, E-shaped classroom building on Peters Street, below Wil- son’s Corner, North Andover. On September 29, 1947, amidst hammers and saws and fresh cement, the first class of Merrimack College, consisting of 165 men, was under way. This was the start of a most ambitious undertaking. Even On September 29, 1952, Archbishop Cushing solemnly in the midst of postwar inflation and uncertainty, tremen- blessed the new campus, and dedicated the buildings in an

The beehive of intellectual,

spiritual, and physical activity is remarkable indeed, but

what elevates it out of the commonplace is the fact that all

of it is centered around the precepts of the Catholic religion laid down by Christ for all men. On April 19, 1954, the Feast of Christ the King, His Excellency Archbishop Cushing once more returned to his beloved Merrimack College to break ground for the new Collegiate Chapel of Christ the Teacher. A gift from the Archbishop himself, the large modem chapel will provide a permanent and fitting home for the religious exercises of the college and will stand as a symbol of the centrality of Christ in a Catholic college.

J Liberal Arts

Attentive students busily jot notes as the professor outlines the essential points. The individual attention stressed in the close teacher-student relationship of Merrimack’s small classes is something never fully understood by those who have not had the opportunity to attend a small college. Classroom work is dwarfed, however, by the hours of prepa- ration necessary to complete thoroughly the required work.

Deep in concentration, these students prepare for tomorrow—the "tomorrow” they have awaited four long years.

The bond between teacher and student is especially evident in this seminar scene. Seminar classes, where students are urged to express themselves freely, are a beneficial and interesting approach to liberal education. Students planning to en- ter the Business field can supplement their training by seeking advice. Placement Director Sim- eon LeGendre interviews an interested Senior.

Senior Jay Martin gains valuable administrative and technical experience by teaching fundamen- tals of Accounting to Freshmen during a Lab session.

Typing ability is an invaluable asset to any businessman. Dick Ber- nardin practices keyboard drills to supplement the typing course instruction.

Business Administration

The distinguishing characteristic of Merrimack’s School of Business is that here the students undertake a curriculum which includes not only the basic business subjects but also

philosophy and the arts. The purpose is to give eaeh student a well-rounded background so that he may succeed

in the art of living a full, more useful life.

Part-time sessions at Merrimack are di- vided between courses during the summer months and evening classes during the regular school year.

Adult education is the primary concern of the Evening Division. Here ambitious rep- resentatives of all walks of life devote their evening hours to intellectual pursuits. The rewards are Associate Degrees in Arts or Bus- iness Administration, or Certificates in Sec- retarial Science. Summer classes afford educational opportunities to those whose work allows them little time during the regular school year. Re- ligious teachers are brought up to date on the latest findings in literature, history and science; students make up required credits and businessmen learn the new techniques of management.

Ah! just the thing to relieve that dryness on hot sweltering days in summer school. These three students don’t look too unhappy, just anxious for the dismissal bell so they can enjoy a cool, refresh- ing swim. Secretarial Science

Although much emphasis is placed on taking, reading, and typing shorthand notes, the efficient secretary must be capable of effectively transcribing from machine dictation.

Through a system of electives in advertising.

"Speed and accuracy" is the motto of all secretaries. These two-year "secs” are diligently at work striving for greater speed and perfection at the keyboard. The seniors of 1955, glamorous in the eyes of the underclassmen and j intermittently in their own, now must return to freshman status, but in a new environment—the world. The difference is that this time they are equipped with the faith, the philosophy, the special skills, the social awareness that come of four years’ involvement with a curriculum which blends general humanistic and scientific knowledge with concentrated training in a chosen specialty.

The curriculum, however, has not been all. There have been sports on land and water, trips to the north and the south, tea dances, dinner dances, hops and proms. The graduate has thus learned to compete fairly and to liv^ graciously in society. Finally, there have been daily and weekly Mass, days of recollection, and annual retreats to call to mind man’s ARTHUR A. ARCHAMBAULT JOSEPH A. BACHAROWSKI EUGENE P.

The Orientation Committee keeps frosh on their toes. Listen to those questions and answers fly!

Jane and Joe Frosh add spice to the Orientation Dance with their version of the Bunny Hop.

Bewilderment and amazement were clearly dis- cernible on the faces of the Class of 1958 as they surged “en masse” through the corridors, the class- rooms, and the cafeteria. Beanies and handbooks became the order of the day, and the sudden approach of orientation officers signified impend- ing doom. Class schedules which once seemed so involved soon became clearer while the subjects, especially math and science, became dim. New friendships soon arose as the Frosh and upper- classmen mingled in the social and intellectual affairs of the campus.

Traditionally, the Sophomore-sponsored Orien- tation Dance frees the Freshmen from the yoke of beanies, buttons, and Sophomore domina- tion. ycE

Fair weather, a convertible, and no afternoon classes mean a chance for a spur-of-the-moment excursion.

There is a certain zest in returning for the Sophomore year. The strangeness of college life has dissipated with confidence borne of experience. The fullness of academic and extracurricular life has become unjumbled and the possibilities of high education begin to dawn. On the scholastic level advanced courses and a familiar- ity with collegiate procedure renders the routine at once more interesting and more fruitful. Then there is the opportunity to assist the Freshmen in treading their way through the academic maze that once troubled us and the fun of the Orienta- tion Program.

Intermission between dances finds Bill and Mere- dith relaxing on a comfortable bale of straw used to add the country flavor at the annual barn dance.

Frank O’Connor, Junior Class "Mixologist,” prepares the punch for the Junior Prom. It’s easy to see that besides having experience in this sort of thing, Frank also likes the work.

1956

The Junior Class has had its most fruitful year —academically and socially. It was a year in which we studied subjects that oriented our training towards fields in which we intend to concentrate. On the extracurricular side we followed tradition by virtually “taking charge” of the social events once the Spring term had begun. The social highlight of the semester came when Junior Week—featuring formals, sports day, and parents’ night—proved to be one of the most succ*essful in the history of the college. Indeed we have built up a rare camaraderie that will continue through next year and into the future.

Religion at Merrimack College is not merely another course that all Catholic students take. Rather it spreads beyond the classroom and gives aim and direction to our whole life. It is of first importance that our religious training be on the same academic level as the rest of our college education. A thorough knowledge of Divine Revelation and a reasoned motivation to put the principles we have learned into practice is the ultimate purpose of our religious training. Under the guidance of the Augustinian Fathers we have been taught the Catholic way of life. We, the Class of 1955, must step into a world that should recognize the supreme position of God in the universe. We must endeavor to thwart pagan and materialistic beliefs by practicing the principles and high ideals of Catholicism. By so doing we can effectively demonstrate to the world that ma

Christ is indeed “the Way, the Truth, and the Life.”

Representing the Sodality and Holy Name Society, Ruth Levesque and John Murphy plan religious functions with our chaplain, Father Hannan.

Dick Hillner and Norman Martin prepare the portable confessional for weekly confessions. The Sacrament of Penance

is available to all Catholic students at any time.

Archbishop Cushing offers Benediction on the Feast of Corpus Christi, for the graces and supplications of the student body. The members of the Sodality of Our Mother of Good Counsel acquaint their mothers with the school and with each other at the annual Mother and Daughter Tea.

Reverend Paul M. Judson, O.S.A., our retreat master at the annual pre-semester retreat, conducted inspiring conferences for the student body.

Living Faith

Religion at Merrimack College extends beyond the lecture hall and permeates directly and indirectly

all the activities of college life. The Reverend James Hannan, O.S.A., Chaplain to the College, directs a well-organized and varied religious program which includes daily Mass, frequent opportunity for recep- tion of the Sacraments, weekly sermon, novena de- votions, and recitation of the rosary. The Sodality of Our Mother of Good Counsel and the Holy Name Guild are the chief agencies for the promotion of other allied functions. The erection of the new chapel of Christ the Teacher will be of inestimable value in caring for the needs of an expanding school.

The new chapel dedicated to Christ the Teacher gradually assumes its commanding position on the Merrimack campus.

Rose Dardano supplies the college religious pamphlet rack with interesting Catholic literature.

BASKETBALL

The determined Merrimack Warriors faced the 1954-1955 basketball season with renewed opti- mism. Highlights of the year were the acquisition of new coach, Kevin Harrington; first-year membership in the National Collegiate Athletic Asso- ciation; Jay Martin’s forty-two point total in the opener against St. Anselm’s.

The Merry Macs • •

In harmony witli the teachings of noted educational theorists who state that a sound

body is an essential concomitant of a sound mind, Merrimack offers a wide and diversi- fied field of athletic endeavor. Consisting of skiing, sailing, hockey, tennis, and intramural basketball, the sports program encompasses the four seasons, enabling the student to keep athletically active and healthy the year round. Respected academically, Merrimack has begun to vie for recognition in the sports world. Its early successes in sailing, tennis, and hockey plus the ever-growing interest in basketball and skiing augur well for the future.

Basketball success is enhanced by the presence of the pretty Warrior maidens. They comprise the cheering section which is also worth cheering about.

Now boasting of ten teams, the intramural league supplies the student with an opportunity for indoor recreation during the long winter months.

The purpose and function of a college newspaper is not only to acquaint the student body with all the activities of the college but to provide an outlet for their latent literary talent. It gives students who participate on the paper a chance to work in an organization and learn the fundamental concept of cooperation which will be invaluable to them in their post-graduate days. To those who do not actively participate, the newspaper provides a necessary link between campus activities and themselves. It affords them an understanding of the work of campus clubs and the paper’s editorials show them what their fellow students think about current problems. If one were to name the primary reason for the main- tenance of a college newspaper, stimulation of thought would undoubtedly be the first choice. In the long run the ultimate purpose of a college education is the exchange and stimulation of ideas. Merrimack’s newspaper functions out of a second floor office in Sullivan Hall. Here, plans for each edition are made at staff meetings held two weeks prior to the deadline date. Completed assignments are later turned over to proof- readers who correct errors before and after the copy is set at the printers. Next, the layout editor and chief editor plan page formats as last minute news items are processed. Finally, the editor discusses final layout plans with the printer and another issue is put “to bed.” Fresh from the printers, a new issue of the Warrior is ready for distribution by the Circulation Department, headed by Arthur Editor-in-Chief Stan Donnelly Archambault and Adele Byron. gathers his staff about him as they formulate plans for next month’s payout and set that all- important deadline date.

and Political Science

Political Science The Sociology and Social-minded members of the Sociology Discussion Clubs combined functions and Political Science Discussion Clubs this year with the hope of showing prepare for one of their bi-weekly visits that, in practice, government cannot to nearby institutions. be separated from the social welfare

of the people. - 1 Under the direction of Professor James St. Germain the group made visits to nearby cities to study local government. Professor Paul M. Shea also conducted field trips to state remedial institutions for sociological case studies. Among their many activities, the members of the clubs visited the Major’s office in Lawrence, Massa- chusetts, the office of the city manager in Haverhill, Massachusetts, the Tewksbury State Infirmary. The group also interviewed Mayor John Buckley of Lawrence on the radio and took an active part in the state elec- tions by working for their respective party organization.

76 Four members of the Young Democrats get the latest political news from the Times during a brief intermission in the cafeteria. Being well-informed is a prime requisite for participation in political discussions.

Young Democrats and Republicans

It is not enough to learn merely the elements and principles of political science. As

in all phases of education the will to put one’s

knowledge into effect is an absolute neces-

sity. It was to forward participation in public life that the Young Democrat and Young Re- publican clubs were formed at Merrimack College. Periodic meetings are held to re- view the functioning of party machinery in the United States, to examine the parties’ platform, and to observe the various means used to propagandize the electorate. Mem- bers are urged to participate actively in political campaigns and in “getting out the vote.” By insisting on strict parliamentary procedure and high political ethics, the clubs hope to inculcate a sound training in the ways and means of interesting members in government and so produce responsil)le Cath- olic citizens.

A bulletin board notice holds the attention of these Young Republicans as they get the latest word on the political program of the administration. Regular post- ing of important material keeps members abreast of developments.

77 Literary and Debating Clubs

The Austin Debating Society and the Lit- erary Club are student organizations pri- marily designed for educative purposes.

The Debating Society, by ha\'ing its members argue the pros and cons of selected top-

ics, seeks to develop in them an ability to use language and logic effectively; and thereby gain poise in public speaking. The Literary Club aims to promote the students’ appreciation of literature through weekly meetings, featuring readings, lectures, informal discussions, and playgoing junkets. Both clubs have the common goal of em- phasizing the pleasurable aspects of intel-

lectual pastimes, and this is manifested in the enthusiasm of their members.

The Literary Club members assemble for the interpreta- tive reading of poems to supplement classroom work. Lectures on foreign litera- tures by members of the faculty and phonograph records of plays are regular features.

Many hours of planning and practice are necessary requisites for the improvement of arguments and the develop-

ment of analytic skill. Here I Louise Pothier drives home a point. The Engineering Guild of the college serves to unite the rapidly growing number of student engineers on campus. Through lectures given by noted engineers, the students attain a more professional outlook toward the various phases of engineering science.

and Benzene Ring The functioning of the Benzene Ring revolves around student lectures. Here an aspiring chem- ist presents some of his findings for discussion. Accounting and

Business Clubs

The Accounting Clul) exists in order to apply and supplement the knowledge gained in the classroom. Professional men frequently visit the club and acquaint the members with the situations and opportunities in the business world. In turn, the club organizes field trips to the offices in the surrounding area, where the members can see professional accountants at work. The Business Club, a new organization on

campus this year, includes in its membership the majors in Accounting, Marketing, Business Ad- ministration, Four-Year Secretarial Science, and Economics. The club promotes intercollegiate relations

through its affiliation with the student chapter of the American Marketing Association, and this year handled the publicity for the regional con- ference of the Association.

On campus, the Club has enabled its members

to familiarize themselves with all phases of business and to adequately express themselves in public. In addition, the Club has held frequent luncheon conferences where featured speakers have kept the members abreast of current business developments.

The Accounting Club features regular field trips to nearby business establishments designed to familiarize the members with practical business procedure. Members here inspect some technical equipment.

Officers of the Business Club dis- tribute membership cards to members in good standing. The practical aspects of running an organization serves to train members for their future place in th& business world. h

80 Glee Club

and NFCCS

The Choral Society is the oldest organized activ-

ity at Merrimack College. Student interest has always been high, and a large number of talented performers has made possible a continued series of

excellent concerts. The versatility of the group is indicated by the execution of selections from the masters, cantatas, and musical comedies. The an-

nual Spring Concert is the highlight of the musical season.

The basic goal of the National Federation of Cath-

olic College Students is to develop and coordinate the humanitarian and the intellectual interests of Catholic college students throughout the United States by forming nation-wide projects. On our own campus, the Sociology Club and the International Relations Club, both affiliated with the Federation, provide students with excellent opportunities for fruitful Catholic action.

Father Wynne, Director of the Choral Society, and Wil- liam McMahon, accompanist, render a piano duet at the Spring Concert held in the Refectory of Austin Hall for a large audience.
