Although each course is different, to do well in one you must have knowledge of the other, says Dr. John McConnell, head of the Math .Department. Ms. Linda McMartney, a new math teacher at South, has a bachelor's degree in chemistry and is completing her work on at master of fine arts at Northwestern i 1 1 1

Dinow, paraprofessional, helps students be- classes. Students need a pass in'the hallway order to provide absolute quiet to students in Scholars Find Whether working in a mini-television station or sewing a three-piece suit or studying AP Biology, students are in- volved in academics. School classes have changed to fit student needs in the past year, and, as a result, students are leaving high school with useful skills. Today, many students are academical- ly inclined as well as activity-oriented. It was once considered to be much more 'in' if a student was involved in 30 activi- ties no matter what his grade average was, things are now doing a turn- around. , ,I Their Place Cum Laude Society, an organization designed to recognize outstanding aca- demic achievement, has granted CBS a charter making it one of two schools in Illinois to achieve this distinction. Because of these factors, more students are better prepared for college and the work it entails, and they are not afraid to know the answers. Academics is no longer a four-letter word. Because of this, students can ex- pand their minds to their utmost and can look for and, hopefully, find their space in the world after high school. The advance sewing class works diligently to fin- ish their chosen projects. Students find that sewing their own clothes is one way to beat rising store costs. lf 'UNC 5 W'

junior Barry Greenberg pays attention to a lecture given to him during his biology class. Miss Linda Novak lectures her advanced algebra class on the sum of arithmetic sequences. Ms. McCartney student at GBS and also at Glenbrook last summer. So, with this back- she will be good for the depart- explains McConnell. Both department heads say there have no radical changes, other than to what GBS has now. One of the Mr. Richard Goodspeed, head the Science Department, wants is to extending the field trip program Biology 153. The main field trip was to North- brook Water Filtration, Goodspeed re- marked. Thereyalso were speakers from Bell Telephone engineering department on women in engineering, which sur- prised the boys, according to Good- speed. One change in science was the addi- tion of a student of the month pro- gram in Biology 163. Every month a stu- dent was chosen for his or her grades and interest in biology. Ernie Burkholder concentrates on his science test. Mr. Urban helps Karen Ploen with the worksheet he gives before tests. The only big change in the Math De- partment was in the two new computers. Our new math computer terminals are our newest thing. They are General Elec- tric terminals, we use them for transmit- ting computer programs between Glen- brook South and Concordia Teachers College in River Forest, says Dr. McConnell. Sf1encef143
