and English SANDRA NOF- ZIGER; B.A., M.A. Rob Jones Universi- ty Eastern Michigan U., U. of Toledo Required for all, mastered by few, English is the basis upon which our communications re- volve. We learn to spell new words, comprehend their meaning, apply them correctly in structur- ing a sentence. We write and read and report, and try to gain an appreciation of our literary heritage. Authors from foreign countries and their works are studied, discussing setting, plot, and meaning. Grammar fills our mind, only to soon be depleted. We are prepared for life and its challenges, more specifically for college com- position classes. Great Books, a more advanced college preparatory course, was added to the schedule this year. The students read and studied books of their choice, reporting on them in detail. Great Books, like all English classes, brings out the refined characteristics of the student. English, the four year enjoyable requirement. CHERIE SHORT; Michigan State University, B.A. Defiance College, M.Ed. University of To- ledo 15

Ohio State University, Defiance, College, advanced work, Madrid, Spain Foreign Languages For those who are unchallenged by our language and culture, or just inquisitive of others' culture, the foreign language department of Archhold High School supplies that need. Latin and Spanish are conquered, not only linguistically but also culturally, by these eager souls who dare to cross continental boundaries and discover what has hap- pened and what is happening in other parts of the world. Cultures, ancient and modern, plus languages, dead and alive provide the student with an exciting year of study. Al- though discouragement, frustration, and panic are familiar attributes of these students, learning is ever present, and they are fortunate who have mastered other languages. GAYLE BOURQUIN; B.S.

HELEN WELDY; Goshen College, B.A. Bowling Green State University Vocational and GLEN GALLAWAY; B.S. Ohio State University Most vocational students are busy prepar- ing themselves for work and challenges which face them immediately after graduation from high school. The girls in this program have busy days filled with activities where they learn the science of homemaking. The hoys, on the other hand, have projects related to their field of interest. The hoys participate in many judging contests which measure the rate of their learning. Both departments con- tribute much to the school scene. LARRY LIROT; B.S. Miami University 16
