Mr. Felix OiDonneil Science The science department hypothesizes on the questions raised by the enigma of the universe. The life sciences of botany, zoology, bioiogy, and physiology ask: where did the first life come from? What is the chemical make- up of organic matter? Can man hope to imitate it? The more technical sciences of physics and Chemistry ques- tion: what is the nature of energy? Why is the formula E:mc2 always applicable? What then is the nature of matter? The new Chem Study course, which emphasizes treatment of chemistry as a lab science, offers capable students the opportunity and the challenge to arrive at their own conclusions via the results of their investiga- tions.

Social Studies Historical study encompasses all records of man,s activ- ity. It includes the story of the political experience of a people in its internal and external phases. It also surveys the soeial and economic aspects of life. Geography pro- vides an understanding of the parts of the world, their inhabitants and resources. With the many controversial topics raised in this department, these teachers bear a tremendous responsibility. They must present the factual side of the subject, while stressing theme and noting cause and effect. They also indulge in heated debate over various issues. Thus the history class gives the individual the chance to express his views. His eventual recognition of the influence of environment and past events on the present and future give history and geography their outstanding place in any curriculum.
