Memoirs of a Hayseed Physicist by Peter Martel

Part 12:
In The Beginning:
There were only two boys in my tenth grade, me, and the other one was an English-speaking Protestant, whom I grew to resent for two reasons. First, because I was of Acadian descent I had to study advanced classes in French, which were given after regular classes. Second, because I was a Catholic, I had yet another class after hours-I had to study catechism in French.
