A
century and a half ago, people in the frontier town of St. Joseph were
surprised by the arrival of four strangely garbed women. The newcomers
were members of the Religio de Sacre Couer de Jesu (Religious of the
Sacred Heart) who came from St. Louis to open a school for girls here.
Since then, thousands of young women were educated here by the nuns,
whose long black-skirted habits, including a white coif, edged neatly
with a starched, fluted border, topped with a black veil, made them an
unusual sight in the wild and wooly town.

An
attic stuffed with old letters, cherished photographs, even canceled
checks can tell a lot about a family, a city or a nation. When
the "family" is a group of nuns and students with convents
and independent schools from Miami to Seattle, from San Diego to
Boston, the "attic" is called an archives. When the order's pioneer
leader is one of the few U.S. canonized saints, the archives is a lode
for American and church historians.

Manhattanville
has been in the national spotlight over the past few weeks as one of
our students, Toni Smith, a senior sociology major, has chosen to
exercise her First Amendment right in the form of a silent protest
during the National Anthem on the basketball court. Her action has
sparked a national debate - on the First Amendment, the appropriateness
of the time and place of her actions, the symbolism of the American
flag, and the mixture of sports and politics.
