french, german, latin, head language department Riez, je vous en prie! Mr. Schwarz ' s friendly smile lends pleasure to his German classes. Mrs. Davis waits patiently for a correct answer. The language department at Concordia this year is full of new ideas and new faces. Two new members joining the faculty are Mrs. Davis and Mr. Schwarz, who is here fulfilling the empty post of Mr. Falken- sten in the exchange teacher program. These teachers are instructing Concordia students in Deutsch. With the aid of the language lab all French and German students have been able to build on to their vocabulary and speaking ability. Last but not least in the language department is Mr. Beutow, who instructs Concordia Latin scholars in verbs and the ancient history of Rome. The language lab was a valuable help to these students. Mr. Buetow cherishes his free moments in solitude, from his usually fun-filled room. 26

The math teachers at Concordia not only strive to teach the basic skills and processes of math, but they also do much to encourage reason- ing and logical thinking. Through the use of theorems, postulates, and solving for unknowns, the student learns discovery and proof. By the use of logarithms, sines, and the slide rule, the math student learns pre- cision. Math gives the student the ability to solve problems and use sound reasoning in everyday cir- cumstances.
