English rr-is CLASSICAL nnvuzw, Adviser English, as our native tongue, is the vehicle for our thought. It is, therefore, the most im- portant subject taught at Classical. The four year course, under the supervision of depart- ment head Miss Elizaheth J. MacDonald, strives to teach the student the clear expression of original thought. Understanding of fundamentals, extensive reading and criticism of prose, poetry, and drama, class discussions, and experiences in writing original essays constitute the English program at Classical. Teachers supplement the course with paperback hooks, summer reading programs, term papers, and required outside reading to acquaint their classes with the works of authors from Homer to Hemingway. 5 a 5 Ing?
