Being aware of this, the faculty arrives early and stays late. During this time the students have the op- portunity to discuss questions about classes and clear up any problems they may be having. This time also gives a student a chance to become better acquainted with his instructors and to find that teachers are quite human. Mr. Ronald Short Lt. Henry G. Siicgart Mr. Dkllmer Sly Sct.

Extra-curricular programs and school recognition provide the incentive a student needs to pursue a classroom activity beyond what is de- manded of him. 21
