Courses in the English department are de- signed specifically to meet the needs of two groups-those who are preparing for college, and those whose needs are more general. Teaching the essentials of the English language and the communication of ideas is achieved through the study of grammar, spelling, vocabulary, sentence structure, letter writing, composition, and oral expres- sion. i su mi THE 1 I 'zzz' 4-- J-F t Projects of the senior English classes are displayed by Tom Bourne, Joe Thompson, and Sally Baiden.

Third year Latin, offered for the first time this year, delves further into Roman life with the study of gov- ernment, politics, prose of Livy, Sallust, and Plinyg and orations and letters of Cicero. Fre- quent discussions on Roman life with posters to illustrate, and special reports supplement the text material. In a two-year Spanish course, the study of grammar is the primary concern. Correct pro- nunciation is mastered by listening to record- ings, staging mock television programs, and question-answer sessions-all in Spanish. Spanish customs and music are studied as an integral part of this course. , -Ib it 'L', X li VIVIEN AUSBAND SARA BIVINS Spanish Latin A. B., Coker A.
