Turner, Soci-al Sciences division chairman, is seen presiding at one of the meetings of his division faculty. Students in the Social Sciences Division learned of manfs institu' tions-his education and economics, his personality and politics. They studied the influences on the individual in psychology, ony the group in sociology, on the nation in political science. They began the neveraending search for reasons why human beings act the way they do. Here, as in the other divisions, the main purpose was to start students searching for knowledge and truth. I In the Physical Sciences Division, Highlanders took a basic course or two or specialized in such subjects as math, chemistry, or physics. lt was here that those students who chose chemistry as the required lab science struggled with figures, formulas, and laboratory analysis procedures. It was also here that Physical Science majors work-ed at understanding their section of the universe. Students and professors alike worked on research projects, some of which won recognition as being outstanding in their field. He learned of the Page I8

Freshmen and sophomores chose their nequired activity from among classes ranging from archery to judo, modern dance to tennis. Fencing, horseback riding, and skiing, synchronized swimming and bowling were all offered to Highlanders. The Life Sciences Division prepared students for careers in medicine and related fields with courses in biology, Zoology, and botany. Beginners in the Life Sciences drew pictures of flora and dissected rats as they came to a fbetter understanding of life processes. The world of infinitesimal beings came into view under the lens of the microscope as Highlanders explored many realms of life under the tutelage of the Life Science instructors.
