Abstract
This issue of Insight recaps the fifty years that have passed. The history was written by different authors and each segment ahs its own distinct viewpoint and style. Sister Marie Agnes begins the story and tells it from the standpoint of one who has lived as well as taught at the Mount for many years. Dr. Lillian Wainwright takes up the story next and presents it from a faculty viewpoint. Sister Mary Albertus finished the three-part story by projecting into the future, and her tone is that of a newly appointed chief administrator, the president. Then we have two bonuses: Sister Agnes Martha Westwater changes the mood again as she deals with twilight figured in the Mount's history, and Mrs. Valerie Cowan describes the campus as it was years ago. And then, because this issue is about the Mount over the years, we've added "then and now" pictures and reminded our readers about the Mount's motto and crest (taken from the back of the issue). Contains "early beginnings" by Sister Marie Agnes, "from a college to a university" by Lillian Wainwright, photos from then and now, "between the dark and the daylight" by Sister A. Martha Westwater, "a memory walk" by Valerie Cowan, and crest and motto.
