Coaching the Cast — Some of the many students who held books in the lobby of education faithfully pursued classes in the academic department. Besides those who took required subjects, most of the students in this department followed a college preparatory course. Students in this section of the theater of learning will become valuable with their increased knowledge of higher mathematics, and the practical values of physics, chemistry and biology. History, sociology and economics will play important roles, as will English, language and fine arts.
