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?

Board What if imaginar numbers Our highly technological society has seen the advent of a scientific boom built on the foundation of mathematics. In this era of space capsules and computers, an understanding of mathematics is invaluable. For this reason, Classical offers a comprehensive mathematics program that enables a student to progress as his individual needs require from elementary algebra to college-level calculus. The value of mathematics is more than in- trinsic, for its use extends into the fundamentals of every scientific Held. A favorite quotation of department head Mr. Walter Bernard is Math is the language of science. M. SOPHIA CAMPBELL College of Saint Elizabeth, A.B. Brown University, A.M. Mathematics
