The natural sciences offer the student opportun- ities for progress in several of the eight objectives. An understanding of the scientific basis of health is essential to the establishment and maintenance of physical and mental health. Scientific study also contributes to the student,s comprehension and com- munication of ideas and to her understanding of the scientific method in theory and application. The programs of the biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, and physiology and bacteriology depart- ments are designed to afford maximum achievement toward these objectives. Laboratory experimenta- tion by individual students illustrates both the theory and the application of lectures, while class demonstrations often provide intriguing supple- ments to lecture material. 16 The courses in the biology department contribute to the student,s general education by providing a comprehensive view of biological science and its importance in human affairs. By observation in field and in laboratory, each student may achieve a knowledge of modern biological thought as well as a mastery of the practical aspects of the science. Chairman of the department Gairdner B. Moment, Ph.D., is assisted by Professor Mary Langdon, Ph.D., and Associate Professor Helen Crouse, Ph.D. Percy Huxley served as lecturer during third term. The physiology and bacteriology department strives to acquaint the student with the methods, fundamental principles, and philosophy of the physiological and bacteriological sciences. Profes- sor Phoebe J. Crittenden, Ph.D., is Chairman of the department, which also includes Assoicate Pro- fessor Helen Funk, Ph.D., Assistant Professor Marguerite Webb, Ph.D., Instructor Judith Pratt, M.S., and Assistant Joanne Coyle, A.B.

The aim of the chemistry department, in addition to furthering the ends of general education, is to meet the needs of those students who tn desire chemistry to supplement work in other fields or t3 intend to use chemistry as a basis for future work. The department consists of Professor Louise Kelley, Ph.D., Chairman, Professors Howard Lloyd, Ph.D., and Belle Otto, Ph.D., Associate Professor Marguerite Schmidt, Sc.D., Assistant Professor Mary Wagley, D.Phil., and Technician Grafton Moore, A.B. Mathematics courses train the student in clear, logical, and accurate thinking and attempt to give her some understanding of the nature of mathe- depurtment of physics and mathematics Seated, left to right: Dr. Dieke, Mr. Rigler, Dr. Lodge, Dr. Torrey, Dr. Barton.

Assistant Profes- sor Mary-Elizabeth Hamstrom, Ph.D., and visiting lecturers Sally H. Dieke, Ph.D., William K. Mor- rill, Ph.D., and Frank V. Rigler7 M.S., complete the department. The courses of the physics department are de- signed to promote the cultural life of the student as well as to prepare those majoring in a science for continuing and applying physics in their field of endeavor.
