HDME ECDNDMIC5 Pattern for living o a lot of students, the reality of single survival is approaching, and to others it's a vague idea. There are classes that help students learn to make wise decisions and the appreciation of different kinds of foods and cooking tech- niques. These classes can be found in the home economics department. The home economics classes teach about routine responsibilities and career goals. They are designed to cover information on the daily needs students will have when living on their own. These include things from budgeting finances to loading washing machines correctly. ln foods and nutrition classes, cooking skills, the use of kitchen equipment, diet information, and trends in food selection and preparation are taught. lt's a lot of fun considering half of the class is guys! l'm taking gourmet next semester which shows how much l like the class! Terry Koomer, senior, explains. One of the many highlights in Mrs. Cole's career goals class is having guest speakers who represent a wide variety of careers ranging from a serviceman to a television newscaster. Home economics are classes almost everyone enjoys and should take. They help students prepare themselves for life on their own. - Tidbits We have a group of students, I about one-third being boys, who take several home economics classes.
