Lehman, M Ed Instructor in Mathematics and Physical Science (on leave of absence) NATURAL SCIENCES AND out phalanges to pre-nursing Homer A. Mumaw, MS Associate Professor of Biology Wilmer R. Lehman, AB Instructor in Mathematics Familiar to the science student are the rotten egg smell of H,S, the rubberish feel of injected frog veins, and the crackle of a Geiger counter scanning a radioactive plant. He is tempted to frustration when Micrococcus roseus fails to appear in his bac- teriology culture or when chemistry experiment 40 blows up in his face. Even the task of identi- fying fifty rocks and thirty minerals for D. Ralph Hostetter presents its difficulties. But there is satisfaction in completing eighty genetics semester test questions in less than forty hours or successfully interpolating fifty logarithmic problems. This satisfaction gives incentive to the young scientist or mathematician to learn and un- derstand more about his world.

A. Don Augsburger, Myron S. Augsburger, Irvin B. Horst, MA Chester K. Lehman, Th D MRE BD Associate Professor of Professor of Theology Assistant Professor of Instructor in Theology Church History Christian Education (on leave of absence) BIBLE AND PHILOSOPHY The inductive method, Zwingli and the Swiss brethren, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Greek grammar and syntax, the theories of creation, divine guidance, Christian service points, right versus wrong, and the philosophy of Aristotle are common topics among professors in the department of Bible and philosophy. These men, qualified by education and éxperi- ence, are leading students to an appreciation of the Bible as Truth. They are promoting skills for Bible study and interpretation. They are guiding each student into a vital Christian experience, a well- integrated Christian personality, and a worthwhile channel of Christian service. “Thy Word is Truth” is not only the motto of the college but the conviction each teacher wishes to plant in the lives of his students. Irvin Horst loses himself in the story of Bathasar Hubmaier from Martyr’s Mirror.
