Law is the Rule of Right Reason

Aquinas has a STUDENT COURT presided over by a Senior Judge, who seeks to be just and fair in all its dealers with offenders against the student constitution. A girl may be arrested for such offenses as: eating in the classrooms, wearing non-uniform apparel or talking in the hall.

If, however, the defendant feels that she is unjustly accused, she is provided with a lawyer to plead her case. The Student Court, assisted by a jury of upperclassmen, then determines the verdict.

Through the Court the student body learns respect for lawful authority, because even though the penalty (one hour of labor with a faculty member) is not so stiff, it makes the would-be offender think twice before disregarding a school law.

In a recent visit to the FEDERAL COURT BUILDING, in its jury room, Student Court officers assumed jury status and listed to the Federal Court Judge. They are: Jean Keeley, Rita Brennan, Dolores Leahy, Joanne Pilot, Sheila O'Connell, Sharon Geinzer, Ingrid Ryba, Katie Sinnott, Irene Lowrey, Nora Dougherty, Linda Lennon, Marion Fischer, Toni Bogner, Lynn Hawkins, Rita Gleason, Mary Jo Ransford and Judy Zielinski.

With Old Glory in the background, Senior Judge Jean Keeley and Rita Brennan, Junior Judge, preside over a session of the Aquinas Student COurt.

Aquinas ...
I Render Thee Service

Service is thy keynote
Willingness, thy way
Gratitude, thy noble trait
May it ever stay!
