What is this?
Optical character recognition (OCR) is an automated process that converts a digital image containing numbers and letters into computer-readable numbers and letters. The search engine used on this web site searches OCR-generated text for the word or phrase you are looking for. Please note that OCR is not 100 percent accurate. If the original image is blurry, has extraneous marks, or contains ornate font styles or very small text, the OCR process will produce nonsense characters, extraneous spaces, and other errors, such as those you may see on this page. In addition, the OCR process cannot interpret images and may ignore them or render them as strings of nonsense characters. Despite these drawbacks, OCR remains a powerful tool for making newspaper pages accessible by searching.

Sociology hits the streets By Stephanie Twining Editor From 2 p.m. on Friday to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 3, Carroll’s Social Problems class stood outside on the street cor ner. Taught by Rev. Jerry Lowney, 28 students waited in the cold on Founder’s Comer trying to raise awareness and funds for the Caring Foundation. The group also collected non-parishable food items for Helena Food Share. Kelsey Moran, a third year Sociology major and participant in the weekend event said, “The experience opened my eyes and really showed how this commu nity is willing to come together to support a worthy cause.” The Caring Foundation is associated with the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana. The foundation provides health insurance to low-income, unin sured Montanans including unin sured children. Another participant, Matt Moen, a junior pre-med and biology major, commented on the sacrifices made by so many Carroll students. “This was a great experience for those of us in the class. We were able to spend time with different people whom we had never met before,” said Moen. “It was also nice to see the community come together to support uninsured children.” So many generous students sleeping out in cardboard boxes on a night that happened to be below freezing made an obvious impression on the Helena com munity. “I would say that every time the stoplight on Euclid went red, at lease half of the cars that were stopped donated money,” said Moran. Just goes to show you what a couple of kids willing to sacri fice a weekend can do. For more information on the final donation amount, contact Fr. Jerry Lowney. to raise money for kids DOING TIME FOR KIDS Josh Buis, along with 27 other students enrolled in Fr.
