Helping the faculty adjust to the upcoming change to the metric system in the 1980 ' s, Mr, Kevin Brever makes a point about meters during a faculty workshop. Diligently answering questions are: Walt Reichert, Lisa Stucker, Gerald Wilkinson, Ed SCHICKEL, John Moll, Bro. Jude, Tim Hyland, Keith Higdon, and Mike Egan. The faculty goes to school t one of the first faculty workshops of the year, the Science Department took on the chore of teaching the entire faculty the metric system. Department members taught the faculty the various uses of the metric system so that they would be able to be ready when the metric system is adop- ted by the U.S. in the 1980 ' s. Mr. Kevin Brever taught how distance is measured, Mr. Tom Martin taught mass, and Miss Diane Vance taught volume. Lab courses in biology and chemistry were a departure from normal classroom lecture methods used, for the most part, in other courses. One course, Mr. Tom Mar- tin ' s frosh science, went outdoors to demonstrate the principles of rocketry on occasion. Sophomores took life science, chemical science, and chemistry. Juniors took chemistry and advanced biology while the seniors were offered an elective in physics. The freshmen took physical science and biology. The Math Department was a separate department under the leadership of Mr. Bill Young. Electives in this department in- cluded: Drafting, calculus, and probabilities and statistics. Sophomores took algebra trigonometry or geometry and basic math courses. The frosh were offered algebra and basic math. @ To see exactly how much hot air Mr, Robert Eckert really does put out, the Science Department tests his lung capacity during a faculty workshop on metrics. 2 Science
