Four counselors, Terry Hood, Fern Luswick and Eva Persons share 116, while Joan Edmonson, Viola Fisher, Floyd Fisher and Thomas Gaines are in rooms 215 and 219, which was formerly the old library. Miss Fisher says of the separate locations, Though there is less confusion, there is the disadvantage of being separated . During the school year 1963-65 a new li- brary, gym and balcony that can hold the en- tire student body, cafeteria and teachers dinet were added. With an enlarged student popula- tion a necessary nineteen new teaching class- rooms were put into use. Administrative highlight of the 1965 se- mester was passage of a millage proposal.

The Middle Ages Contribute Trivium to 1965 IP' fl Q 2 . 1,14 is ' F hough education has, throughout its his- lM.,2f'.?Q' tory, made many advances in curriculum de- velopment, certain features stand out re- peatedly and can be found both in the academic curriculum of Dondero during the school year 1964-65 and in the plan of study of the schools of the Middle Ages. The curriculum of the medieval school was based on a program called the Seven Liberal Artsg the print below shows their being taught in such an institution. The Seven consisted of a Trivium, including Grammar, Rhetoric and Dialectic lflogiclg and a Quadrivium of Arithmetic, Geome- try, Astronomy and Music. Beyond the Seven were the greatest subjects, Ethics and Theology. Of the Trivum, Grammer was, and still is, the most basic and uniform subject, for it was necessary preparation for the others. At that time, the Trivium was considered sufhcient for the study of theology, although more ad- vanced preparation could be attained by studying the Quadrivium, some of which was often included in the text- books of the Trivium. Today at Dondero, many elements of the Seven are still present, in refined forms. Grammar, of course, in an integral part of freshman and sophomore English, while Rhetoric has become Speech and is studied by juniors and seniors. Arithmetic and Geometry have become whole curriculums in themselves, now suited to varied aptitudes and interests, while music, orginally a vehicle for religion, has enlarged into vocal and instrumental departments, completing the analogy between Dondero and the medieval. at .sl 99' l jg Q N57 4 r ,, 1,6 , ,I ll-ur. x ,, Z ,K ' - ' ' 513.
