What Do You Want- Good Grammar Gr . . . Each time you open the cover of a book you may be- come Scarlett O'Hara, Ioan of Arc, Queen Elizabeth, or a thousand different exciting characters. Even the required reading books, though their titles or covers may turn you off, could be bursting with immeasurable enjoyment. An English literature course can take you from Frost to Hemingway and from Shakespeare to Greene. Let your imagination run on a voyage which may take you into an eerie mystery or into a captivating romance. Grammar, tedious though it may be, is the key to writing your own papers. No matter how great your writing style is, if the words are misspelled or punc- tuated incorrectly, the paper is a flop.

In order to create a favorable future it is necessary to understand the history of the past. This is why Madonna offers her students a well rounded program in this subject. Our country's welfare depends partly on how well we are able to associate with foreign countries. The background and reasons for actions taken by coun- tries is examined and interpreted in World Culture. Since past decisions often reflect future actions taken by nations, we must be aware and informed of former world events as World History explains. But before we can concern ourselves with other nations we must clean up our own backyard. American History provides an unbiased look at our country's part in world affairs and development. Seniors dis- cover the principles of business and industry through Economics and Sociology. We are the future America. To handle this immense responsibility we must be fully aware of the times and people before and of our present era. 'How many can tell me what World Culture is? ' g A
