and Science The best evidence of Agnes Scott ' s interest in the progress of present- day living is the science and mathe- matics departments. These depart- ments offer excellent instruction in biology, physics, chemistry, astro- nomy, and mathematics. In these courses one finds emphasis on exact- ness of knowledge, and the labora- tory experiments are both interest- ing and informative. The up-to-date instruction avail- able in these fields will be tremen- dously enlarged next year by the modern facilities of a new science hall. During this past year the new Bradley Observatory, containing the largest reflecting telescope in the Southeast, has intensified the interest in Astronomy both on the campus and in the surrounding community.
