Read, rite Who or whom? lt was he or it was him? Typical questions in most language classes, these types of questions, still stumped stu- dents all year. The English department was very well developed during the year. Advanced stu- dents were taking courses that certainly would be of help in college. Students who weren't really into English took some of the less time-consuming classes. Whatever the student's desire, the Eng- lish department had the class. Students who liked to write could choose creative writing or advanced composition. Gram- mar students took advanced grammarfre- search paper, where their grammatical skills were put to the test by writing a full- length term paper. Readers could take Eng- lish or American lit, Imaginative or Young Adult Lit. Students who liked the partici- pation in class could take Play Production, otherwise known as acting, or public speak- ing. The freshmen and sophomores were required to pass survey courses: divided into Verbal and Visual , and Speak regular or enriched Qhonorsj classes. The foreign language students had a choice of Latin, German, French, or Span- ish. Each language ranged from first year through fourth year. Advanced students were somewhat more independent than oth- er foreign language students. While ad- vanced students in Spanish spoke the lan- guage fluently, advanced Latin students translated and worked on grammar. For three years English classes are re- quired of all students. Foreign language classes are strongly advised for future col- lege students. Many students this year awaited their English or foreign language class with an eagerness to learn: others de- cided they could definitely live without ei- ther subject. Both were subjects of concen- tration and memorization, and ifyou didn't have either one of those abilities, the chances are you didn't crave either subject either!
