Lander, Guidance Department Head Mrs. Morin, Guidance Department secretary GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT Our counselors’ jobs never end: conferring with par¬ ents and teachers, assuring seniors that their transcripts have been sent, constant reminding to get college boards applications mailed, scheduling the constant traffic of college representatives—all the activities of the guidance department reflect a definite interest in the student’s progress. Although its atmosphere may at times seem somewhat frenzied, one can always find the individual attention necessary for a problem or con¬ structive advice for future years. We at Stuart deeply appreciate the warmth of each of our guidance counse¬ lors and hope to fulfill their expectations of us in the years to come.

Head of the constant racket in these rooms is Mr. Lynn, who, along with the other modern language teachers, is very much in the tempo of the new audio lingual teaching method, or ALM. Along with the new department head, Stuart wel¬ comed Mrs. Felices, who taught Spanish this year under the Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program. Widely acclaimed by many authorities, ALM is a milder form of brainwashing; through continuous repetition and drills, the students develop conditioned “reflexes,” actually rejoinders . . . sort of like Pavlov’s dog. Ahem . . . Besides gradually adapting the department to ALM, plans were made to in¬ troduce a Russian course for next year. Of course, for those who are interested in ancient history and want no accent wor¬ ries, there is always veni, vidi, vici. Mrs. Condit at her evil machine.

LLB. Rutgers LIM. George Washington SOCIAL STUDIES Point of Order, Mr. Chairman! Hawaii at the North Pole? The Romans did that?! These and other incredu¬ lous cries can be heard constantly echoing from the hall of the Social Studies Department, where classes in World Geography, World History, U.S. History, and U.S. Government are taught. Whether the social stu¬ dies student is loudly participating in one of the active debates in Mr. Baker’s class’s mock U.S. Senate, atten¬ tively listening to one of Col. Kait’s informative lec¬ tures on Communism, or taking part in any other stimu¬ lating historical, geographical, or governmental pursuit, he is sure to finish his studies with a deeper apprecia¬ tion and keener awareness of the world around him.
