Students experiment, learn in science The mystery of life, the questions of the uni- verse, may, in the end, be unanswerable to the human mind. But it is at raising these that it is possible for us to have a finer outlook on our own existence. For where would we be without lights, electricity, and even running water, all inventions brought about by man ' s disenchantment with his own surroundings. Yes, science is more than just facts and useless terms; it is more a way of life than the average student might assume. Science ' s sole purpose is not just to keep man existing, but to help him develop his evolutionary potential. For as man continues to conquer nature, so also is he able to create and invent in his leisure time. Through the use of the scientific method of research, man can systematically con- trol and regulate the forces of nature. Science is an attempt to find the Divine Plan of the universe. It is an attempt to explain Wonder. Ultimately, it is the search for God. TOP: A complex bacterial experiment in Biology I holds the attention of two Sophomore girls.

The basic idea behind shorthand is learning a new way of writing an alphabet according to sounds . . . The trouble is, I guess, that I can learn shorthand. It ' s tryin ' to put it back into the English that makes it so difficult . . . Hands on the keyboard, eyes on the copy. Ready. Go! ... I think this is going to be a bad day. I spilled my mascara on my short- hand transcription, got stopped in the corridor by Mr. Stackpoole without a hall pass, and now my hair is stuck in the keys of the typewriter. Well, maybe tomorrow will be better! . . . Credits minus assets equals debits (I think) . . . the major diff- erence between our system of economy and the Communists is that we believe many people have control over a lot of the wealth and they (the Comunists) believe that many people have control over a lot of the wealth (I think) . . . asdf jkl; asdf ;lkj asdf ;lkj . . .
