Science plays a lead role in the building of a solid education in class and lab where experiment and theory combine. During the past year, the students have se- lected new interest Courses ac- cording to their own preferences. These included ecology, astro- nomy, and Medical Themes from Television, a course which com- bined entertainment with learn- ing. Developing through these new courses, students have come to appreciate the value of educa- tion.

Practical subjects demand In Math and Business classes, students learn that one error makes the difference between success and failure. Typing, Short- hand and Office Practice stress the need for clear, concise pa- pers, as students in Sister Eileen and Sister Kilian’s classes soon discover. Each day a new assign- ment is given, and done, with in- creasing dexterity and confi- dence. Math too, requires logic, and above all, specific vocabulary to convey ideas correctly. Students having interests above and beyond Algebra, Geometry, and Calculus classes, are invited to join Math club, which enables them to increase their knowledge through debates with other schools. Using this knowledge, students go on to hol d their own in a world demanding more and more clear thinking these days. Perilous problems in analytical geo- metry and trigonometry puzzle William Flynn.
