Many courses are combined Many courses in the English Department were combined to create new classes in 1975-76. An increase in enrollment in the publication class helped to bring about Yearbook and Newspaper Practicum as two separate courses. The Three Hour Block class was a combination of U.S. History, Composition, and American Literature, offered for the first time in 1975-76. A class that combined Short Story and Novel is now called Fiction. Mass Media was revised and the name changed to Individual and Mass Communication.

A new three-hour block class was offered at GHS this year. The class was a combination of American Literature, American History and Composition 1 and 2. Striving for personal growth and a variety of experiences, the class went on a Survival Weekend with no modern facilities. They also put on many skits through out the year and went on several field trips. Mr. Hannah, who taught the experimental class, said, some difficulties were encountered concerning proper use of free-time, and the need for better self-discipline. He went on to say, the class was quite diff icult academically, but with the extra activities it helped develop better understanding of one's self, and promoted independent study. 17
