Faithful to Christ, it does (h is apostolic work of developing in young Catholic women the spiritual, intellectual, and :u:s(hcric powers which contribute to the God-intended elevation of the human soul. The Church hopes much (rom the leadership of C:lfholic College Sludcnts. It is its hope that they will form :tn invulner­ able bulwark [Q rhe fierce onslaughts of cynical agnosricis\n, pragmatic l1aruralism, and spiritual indifferentism. T herefore, not [0 Ix: found wanting, we students must continue (0 grow in intellectual vigor. in emotional stabi lity, in keen sens ibi lity, in ae:sthetic perception. in order that we ma y become balanced characters, standing four-square in human dignity, and aspiring ro the: attainment of children of God. Twenty-five years ago, Emmanuel College presented its first graduation exercises. These gradu:Hes of the first Catholic College in New England were prepared to meet :tnd to deal w ith the problems found in the fields of business, science, professions . Since: then our College has grown in power and service by its e:n riched curriculum of the: liberal and scientific stud ies . look­ ing confldenrly towards the future, we vision Emrnanucl Col­ lege in incre::tse:d and enriched fecundity conrinuing to plant in the minds :tnd hearts of young women spiritu:tl, intellectual, and aesthetic seeds.
