,gms ,s Soc. Studies ept. Adds New Classes Dealing with important events past, present and future was the initial task of the Social Studies Department. Introduction to Social Science and Civics were incorporated into the cur- riculum of the Social Studies Depart- ment Iast year. Several History classes used a new type of presentation-film loops. The film loop was a silent 8mm docu- mentary film, about five minutes in length. These films thoroughly de- veloped a particular period in history. Psychology classes were given a boost this past year by the use of new experimental equipment. Color scheme study and personality exami- nation gave variety to the class. One project of particular interest to the students was an experiment on group consensus. Spring semester electives offered in the department included International Relations, Values and Issues, and En- glish History. Discussion of ideas added to class interest.
