Math Club Gets New Members Mu Alpha Theta started out with a group of thirteen members this year. Their main goal was to create an interest in math. To do this they learned new techniques in solving and shortening problems that were in the Mathematical Log . Some of their activities were going to the A851 Computer center on the campus and sponsoring the Math Tournament. Aside from this they opened a math center in the office of the math wing. Students could go there and do their math homework, buy paper, orjust listen to the radio in there. They also learned to use the slide rule and were assigned problems easy enough for the Freshmen and chal- lenging enough for the upperclassmen. The members were as follows: President, Susana Aleman, Vice- President, Viola Villarreal, Secre- tary, Cheryl Walker, Treasurer, Lin- da Gonzalez, Sergeant-at-Arms, San- dra Garcia.

The preparing of the club helps the girls because they then find out for themselves what it is really like to be a nurse. During the training the girls are called Candy Stripers. Mrs. Kane plans their assignments and their shifts at the hospital. The girls enjoyed the Future Nurses Club because they liked helping the sick and needy.
