fe' ff anels, slides, reports, and dem- onstrations on old and new historical data engulfed social science students this past year. History, geography, and sociology scholars spent their time learning the story of man by studying his social patterns, his past experiences, and his environment. Miss Mary Catherine Basolo, Mr. Sam Waken, and Sister Mary Joachim, O.P., instructed their students in these courses. Much of the year for freshmen students was used in learning about Oklahoma as it was before the arrival of white settlers, and how Oklahoma developed into its present statehood. Sophomores and juniors studied our country, its beginning, and its growth into the world power it now is. Seniors used their time learning the economic and social patterns of our country, and our economic and social relationship to the rest of the world. The social science students at Mc- Guinness partake in a well-rounded program which enables them to have a better understanding of the world.
