OLD WINE IN NEW BOTTLES The Department of Biological Sciences is put- ting old wine in new bottles; while the laws of science are still examined in the laboratory, the department ' s new courses in Environmental Studies constitutes a shift to the field. In Mother Nature ' s own laboratory, the forest preserves, twenty CSC students reported at 5 A.M. in the morning in order to attend a class in orinthology. These same twenty students were joined later in the day by sixteen more students for a class in aquatic biology. Besides this rigorous course of study, many students are also involved in organizations such as the Campaign Against Pollution, The Sierra Club, The Save the Dunes Movement, The Audubon Society, and the local chapter of Nature Conser- vancy. The department also sponsored a field trip which involved a study of the Great Lakes drainage basin. According to Dr. M. Beuschlein, the field and laboratory study of biology go hand and hand. While the department promotes environmental studies in the field, it complements these efforts by offering extension courses at the Chicago Academy of Sciences, Morton Arboretum. The department has also invested in modern equip- ment for research in the field. While industry may pollute the land, the efforts of people like Dr. M. Beuschlein and her de- partment will prevent the pollution of students ' minds. It is within young minds that the hope ofthe future rests.
