' xi? A ,r-115 04 W MUSIC Fenton Fly flnstructorl I received my Bachelor of Music Education degree at Wichita State- Univer- sity, my Master of Music Education degree at Indiana University and my Doctor of Musical Arts degree at the University of Missouri. My current position is at the Kewanee Community Unit Schools teaching Instrumental and Vocal Music, but I have taught part-time at Black Hawk East every semester that it has been in operation. Mrs. Dorothy Smith flnstructorj I have taught all the art courses that have been offered at Black Hawk East since its beginning, until this year. Now I only wish to teach part-time, so I have two classes a week: Art Appreciation and Two Dimens- ional Design first semester, and Craft Workshop and Two Dimensional Design second semester. I love teaching and am happiest when teaching. Other interests are collecting and reading art books. I have my B.S. degree from Bradley Univer- sity and my M.A. degree from the University of New Mexico. My-U irmrf we-amx 2 W' ,Q I AI 'Q 44. A49 J W 55133951

MATHEMATICS Doug Sergeant flnstructorj Life is not a 'static process', why should education be so? To understand my philosophy of education, one must first be aware of my twofold definition of the term. First, I feel that education should help you become a more responsible person, a person who is able to recognize his responsibilities to propagate our society. In my teaching field, Mathematics, I am constantly seeking answers to various problem-situations whose solutions are arrived at by a sequential process. I feel mathematics should be taught for various sequences or patterns, which should be studied, in the hope, that the student will discover a process that will work for him when dealing with problem-situations in life. Once the onosphere fmindl has been trained to analytically solve problems, it will go through these processes automatically if allowed to do so. 20 John E. Bonebrake fAssistant Professor! I was brought up in Erick, Oklahoma, and received my B.S. degree at Southwestern State College at Weatherford, Oklahoma in 1963 with majors in both biology and chemistry. Ireceived an M.S. degree in 1967 from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale with a major in zoology and a minor in botany. My master's thesis was done in the area of herpetologyg this study has been accepted for publication in the JOURNAL OF MORPI-IOLOGY. I am presently teaching general biology and introduction to chemistry classes and working on the organization of laboratories, materials, and equipment for these courses.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Steve Schaefer flnstructorj I teach Business Administration at Black Hawk East. I have entered teaching here because I desired to find out whether I would enjoy teaching as a lifetime profession before continuing with a Ph.D. I believe that actual exper- ience in practical business situations should supplement text book theoriesg therefore, I have conducted with my classes a series of marketing surveys, price comparisons, and financial position papers. In the near future I will be pur- suing a Ph.D. at Berkeley. BUSINESS OCCUPI-XTIONS Carolyn Beechler flnstructorj I joined Black I-Iawk East Faculty in September of I970. This is my first year of teaching on a junior college level. I had previously taught business education in Michigan, Missouri and Illinois for a total of five years. In my courses I try to teach what I feel is important as a result of the several years of secretarial experience I have had. In the future I hope to continue graduate study and my college teaching. I was awarded my B.S. degree from Western Illinois University and my MA. degree from Michigan State University. 22
