Seniors Before departing this great school, all seniors must have achieved the required quarter hours in Science, Mathematics, English, and Social Studies. In the science field, one might have found very demanding Physics on his schedule. Or if one was into knowing about the body Hu- man Biology was an order. Trigo- nometry, Calculus, and Logic were the main Mathematics courses being taken. After the re- quired sixty hours of English, Shakespeare, or Trends In Con- temporary Literature might have been taken. For those who didn ' t prefer Literature, Occupational English, or Argumentation were good courses. For seniors want- ing to know more about their own and other countries as well. World Studies could be taken. For students who wanted to know a little about countries and how they related to each other, they might have taken Interna- tional Relations.
