MRS. SIBYL TILSNER BA, MT, Central State 'N D 155 g l? Fi 3 -ii MISS MARY NEEL MRS. ROENA SMITH BS MA, Northwestern University BA, OCW BA, OCU Department Head frzglish .75 Zvrcver A good background in all phases of English is helpful in all aspects of life. lt is necessary for a person to have the knowledge of his own language and to be able to apply it correctly whether that person is speaking or writing. This is one of the functions of Classen's English department. Various works by English and American authors are pre- sented for the student to study. These exemplify all types and levels of writings. Expression on the part of the individual is also stressed through the development of his ability to write creatively and to express himself orally. This year the advanced senior English class had several discussions of great books, while other classes had both oral hook reports and panel discussions. Mrs. Tilsner's English Literature lesson is being wasted on several of her students It seems that something else has caught their attention. 2 ref sa! VM as MRS. KATHLEEN SPEED
