W 1 in 'gt dl' Experience dds to Education With only one new teacher, Ms. Whitehead, the Math department was composed of many veterans. lt is a fairly large department, since students at Marcos are required to take math courses to graduate. As head of the Math department, Mr. Lassen is responsible for evaluating the Math teachers, ordering and bud- geting for the department, and assign- ing classes and rooms. Mr. Lassen said l'm very lucky in that I have great teachers to work with. The math de- partment is very experienced and can offer the students an excellent educa- tion. The courses available in the Math de- partment were basic arithmetic, con- sumer math, elementary algebra 1A-TB, Algebra 1-2, honors algebra, geometry and analysis. A fairly new math-related club spon- sored by this department is Mu Alpha Theta. its purpose is to tutor students who are having problems in math. The organization came to campus last year inviting students with a B average in algebra 3-4 to join. Academics 0 125
