"Alma Mater"

The phrase "alma mater" rs applied
to colleges and universities, is said to
have originated in the University Of
Bonn, Germany. A statue Of the Moth
err of Christ-the alma mater, or be-
loved mother, stands over the doorway
of that famous seat Of learning. From
1t the phrase received its origin.
