As juniors explore our literary heritage, they come to appreciate and understand the many great American authors and poets. Grammar and effec- tive communication become the guides that direct the student into the vast territory of American liter- ature. Bridging the Atlantic and providing a varia- tion is Shakespeare and his England, as juniors study Hamlet and seniors, 1VIacBeth. As the senior inspects and analyzes Anglo-Saxon traditions, he also gains a better View of a college course. Milton, T. S. Eliot, Hardy, and Iohnson create a com- monwealth ot literary enjoyment. The homestead of American heritage and England's kingly tra- dition are entrenched by outside reading and vo- cabulary study.

As Americans face the un- finished remodeling and constant repair of the family, the student finds a concrete source for this family construction through lectures, research pa- pers, discussions, and role playing in Family Life. ff, V, vt., .. ..., .
