The vital importance of the mathematical and scientific work of Albert Einstein has been universally acknowledged. Solving life's problems mathematicall Sine, cosine, and Tangent curves whirl around Buchser's C-wing, The home of the Math Department. Here, students have several phases of mathematics available To them: introduction to algebra, mathematics fundamentals, Algebra I, geometry, Al- gebra ll, Trigonometry, and solid geometry with a preview of calculus. Through math, The student develops his ability To reason. Each new Theorem has hidden logic which The true mathematician must learn To discern. The once fuzzy concept becomes a sharp reality in The minds of advanced students-but only Through disciplined Thinking. Mr. Filice demonstrates The versatility of the slide rule as a product of progressive evolution over the old-time abacus held by Tom Johnson. Tim Loomis lleftl and Alan King look on. 64

Experimenting with ature and learning Experimeniing with momenium are Jan De Shera, Mr. McFarland, Len Sprinkles and Kathy Blamey in their physics class. The search for physical universal Truths becomes The goal of sfudenis who delve inTo science at Buchser. Time and devotion have allowed man To learn a fraciion of ThaT which can be dis- covered. The remainder lies hidden for new minds To uncover. These new minds are being developed by courses such as general science, biology, chemis- Try, physics, and physiology, all of which are available ai Buchser.
