That is why students are required to take a course in the science of their choice. . Biology focussed on genetics and anatomy, with sessions of dissection for first -hand observation. Chemistry explores the basic elements, their ,relation- ship and reactions. Physical Science emphasized the scientific method- while teaching astronomy, geology, anthropology, and earth science. Physics includes the study of the basic properties of matter, heat, light, and electricity. ei V Assistant Professor, Biolo- gy sy Robert ,wg 5 Q Burham You do ou th' Professor, Ch ' t ' Y I lflg and I'll do mine.

Just as reading is a gateway to a world, so, in a smaller sense, is mathematics. .- -' -- -0' .,, .a f- V .1t, , X.: time Bm of .logic Robert Madden Assistant Professor, Mathe- matics D Thomas Rider Assistant Professor, Chem- H Assistant Professor, Phys istry, Statistics, and Physical Science Richard Simpson ics 85 Mathematics Q 71,443 r John Gertenrich Erna Jensen Assistant Professor, Mathe - Assistant Professor, Mathe - matics matics
