MR. HOWARD G. BISHOP BS, Austin Peay State College; General Math and Algebra I. Math Determines Courses MRS. CAROLYN F. WILLIS BA, Winthrop College; Geometry. As the sophomore begins his first math course at Glynn Academy, he has a feeling of frustration and a secret knowledge that the early mathematical heroes formulated their innumerable equations for the sole purpose of be- wildering him. The student usually spends the first few weeks of the course learning the general principles of the course and the little eccentricities of his teacher. In Algebra I the student has his first taste of coefficients and exponents; this sets the scene for Algebra II. In his second year of algebra the student takes up such foreboding subjects as the sexagesimal system, permutations, and the Fibonacci sequence. Geometry encompasses the interesting area of plane surfaces, offering proof that math does have use in everyday life. MRS. CLAIRE T. HICKEY BSEd, University of Florida; Algebra and General Math II. 24 MR. HARRY A. CLARK BS, Georgia Southern College; Algebra and General Math II.

Math IV offers students an integrated course covering both advanced algebra and trigonometry. Modern applications of math are graphically demonstrated in this work, which points out prime reasons for continuing the study of mathe- matics. On Mondays students who have ventured into the world of Math V reach a critical point in their course and must exert maximum effort. They find, however, that calculus and analytic geometry assume an increasing function in their later studies. MR. OREN D.
