For students interested in learning the skills of preserving our heritage, Dr. Calvin Holsinger, professor of history, explained the museum prac- ticum. It provided an op- portunity to recapture things man. that you've lost. Scott Students interested in Hovater, senior, found it gave government, law, historical practical experience in mu- research, and teaching found several programs in the social sciences department to reach their goals. Through majors in history, political science, pub- lic administration, or social science, and an anthropology minor, students gained the knowledge and experience needed to participate in a social world. Several career-related programs offered a wide range of experiences, while classes offered the means of gaining the knowledge. In February, 12 students participated in the Washington Studies Program. They attend- ed seminars and interned with their state senators, represen- tatives, or in a department related to their future career. A new internship was added to the program. This practicum offered political science majors an opportunity to work in the district offices of senators and representatives and in party headquarters.

An increase in the number of pre-law students, according to Tom Duncan, professor of public administration, is at- tributed to the high availability of jobs in legal fields. Duncan, ' new to the staff last fall, will replace the vacancy left by Wesley Ward, associate professor of political science and history, who retired. Students considered the high quality of the professors to be one of the best aspects of the department. Tim Shearer, junior, commented that the staff seems extremely knowledgable in the social sciences. He attributed this proficiency to the practical experience many of the professors have had. The high quality is also seen in the scores on the Legal Scholastic Appitude Test, as Evangel students score consis- tently above the national norm of the LSAT. Susan Massey, senior, said she felt she could not have gotten a comparable education in history at any other Christian college. -lulie Sloan e 881, with the 4 Miss Wk, v w VlClOriC e utg marked the tu l a Dcrmd thQOUFl ; trnlilg . -.
