New Methods Sought For Biological Study Repeating its theme of modernization, the division of biological science strove this year to meet growing enrollments and in- creasing knowledge of the world. Because of expanding enrollment in bio- logy classes, the faculty has been en- couraged to evaluate the possibility of audio-tutorial laboratories as a teaching method. Change has also been noticed in the agriculture curriculum which is being moder- nized to meet growing demands of the pro- gram. Research conducted within the division this year resulted in the publication of eight scientific articles. This makes a total of 196 papers published by the division in the last 5 1 years. Scientific equipment is a valuable asset put to use by the students enrolled in laboratory classes in Albertson Hall. Clark, Thaine A.: Assoc.

Studying grass identification in the field is an important phase of the range management class for agriculture majors. Problems of dairy and stock producers are considered as well as expenses and marketing values. Dr. G. W.
