We all stress academic excellence, said Tom Raw- son, chairman of the 12- man social studies depart- ment. There were no females in the department, which Rawson feels may be the reason for a certain lack of female opinions. Each department member does, however, do his best to present both sides of issues instead of trying to sell only his own views. This year the department went through the process of a Social Studies Curriculum Study. Rawson commented on this study. It would appear that we are going to have an additional two semester requirement for social studies courses. We spent a lot of time working on this study. A federal study in this area also reinforced what they found. 105
