Over the years, Hillsdale has expanded its academic courses to keep pace with the pro- gressing worid and to adequately prepare its students for whatever iob or further course of study that they wish to pursue after graduation. Hillsdale has been, and is still in the process of instig-ating new courses of study for future years. The curricuium, with its new accelerated math plan, the audio-linguai program, the addition of the American Economics course in the history department, and the expanding science labora- tories, gives the student a wide variety from which to pick and strives to give her the best possible education in what ever interests she decides to pursue. The members of the faculty are responsible for developing these new courses and plans of study, and giving the student an opportunity to develop her capabilities to the best of her ability. Perhaps the greatest achievement that any teacher can hope for, is to give to her students a knowledge of the course that she is teaching and to stir up within the student the incentive for further study and development of the stu- dent's ideas. We are fortunate, perhaps too fortunate, in having the door so widely open to a rich and complete education. We have before us a variety of courses in which to find our direction, we have small classes and faculty members, whose patience, encouragement and guidance is never Eacking. However, our education is in our own hands: we can take advantage of what is before us, or we can let it slip by, and wish too late that we had grasped it as it passed by.
