English: Subject For the ' Pros ' The ability to communicate well is so necessary in today ' s changing age that the English department at Ritter has found it necessary to diversify the method of teaching and offer additional elective courses. Grammar and literature are now correlated. The student incorporates into his own literary work the techniques and styles of famous works of art he has stud- ied. Through the study of American, Eng- lish, and World literature, the student acquires knowledge of past cultures, com- pares styles, language and themes of var- ious periods in history, and projects his ideas into literary forms similar to those studied. Although working with two dif- ferent media, both Journalism and Speech students learn to express themselves with more impact and effectiveness. Librarian Miss Walker moderates the Junior Class and also team teaches with Sister Sarah in Sophomore English — Ritter ' s first experiment In flexible scheduling. Previewing filmstrips in the library is Sister Francis Ellen, who teaches junior and senior English.
