we Social studies stimulate minds This year, the social studies department had many interesting and unusual subjects to offer. So- ciology expanded on the problems of poverty and child abuse. Social problems dealt with some harsh realities of life, rape, birth control. Problems of high school experience were also explored. Urban studies dealt with the different aspects of urban life and the future of cities. Psychology probed the facts of the mind and behavioral patterns of life. Afro- American history explored the past of minority cul- ture, and Colorado history allowed students to be- come involved with physical aspects of the Colora- do past. 1. Mr. Powers, Colorado history teacher, pays for a historical night out. 2. A guest lecturer in social problems catches the interest of Linda Thompson and Jovetta Thompson. 3. Wendy Herner and Bev Bricker relive the old days. 4. Sociology students simulate ghetto life with a specially de- signed Ghetto game. 5. Concentrating on life's problems is part of Kim Stigeris classwork. l 19
