IN'ith so much tension in the world today due to the advances made in mod- ern physics. no person can claim to he trulv edu- cated who does not have some knowledge of the principles offered in explanation of these devel- opments. The courses in Mathematics aim to develop methods of logical thinking and to em- phasize the relationship of Mathematics to every- day living - especially its importance to the en- gineering sciences.

Courses include the stfudy of both plant and animal phvsiologv. cell theory. evolution. heredity. and the origins of life. The facilities in the renovated Carnegie Science Building pro- vide excellent working conditions for the laboratory sessions which are a necessary supplement to text-book learning in any Biology course. As is true of the courses in Biology. those in Geology at the under- graduate level will prepare the student for many divergent fields. For all students. regardless of their major. there is much cultural value to be gained from a subject stressing a fuller appreciation of the beauties of the earth on which we live.

The great technical strides made in the scientific age have created an ever-increasing demand for specialists in the chemical field. The Bates Chemistry Department, under the direction of Dr. YV. A. Lawrance, is keeping pace with this demand. Courses in both or- ganic and inorganic areas are of- fered the BS. and A.B. student. For those majoring in Chemistry, three different programs are avail- able meeting the requirements of industry and graduate school, teaching. and premedical prepara- tion. These programs have received the approval of the American Chemical Society. Thus. a student can acquire the familiarity in theory and practice prerequisite to entering the chemical profession. 1 1 I
