Science Student Today - Worker Perhaps Tomorrow The nauseous smell of formaldehyde filtered through the room as the subjects for dissection were brought out in big jars. Un- concerned biology students were soon engaged in a fascinating study of parts of frogs, grasshoppers, and worms. There was no question what was going on when a loud ex- plosion rocked the 200 building. Classes were eagerly engaged in an experiment which wasn't always successful. Senior science classes usually had a series of themes, lectures, and illustrative filmstrips that followed along with the material presented in their text books. The most intense science study was conducted in the physics classes. The study of the physical world considered as a whole, left its mark on poor Eagles who today can be found wandering around in a stupor muttering equations and formulas. 1975 will find these science students still experimenting. Taking a break 'From fheir class work, +he senior science boys goof off.

3D figures help Sara Jane Evans and Stuart Hall solve a geometry problem. Proving parallelograms, Mrs. Holbrook illustrates wirh a movable figure. Math, math, and more math! Confused algebra I students pondered over equations such as 3-x-4 yet within only a few moments were confronted with 3-x:2. Already having mas- tered problems such as these, algebra II minds digested expon- ents, logarithems, and imaginary numbers. For students particu- larly interested in algebra, a more thorough study of this branch of mathematics challenged the advanced Algebra III class. Tangents drove plane geometry students in circles as they struggled to remember the correct theorems, axioms, or pos- tulates correctly' applying to each exercise. Some probably dis- covered for the first time that ninety degree angles are always right angles-never left. Many mathematically inclined students with slide rules, formulas, and figures constructed in third dimension passed solid-trigonometry hoping someday to enter the beckoning Held of engineering.
