The Science Department wishes to give the stu- dent the opportunity to learn as much of the impli- cations and applications of science as he can profit- ably employ in his chosen career. Toward this end, courses are divided into two groups, non-academic courses designed for the student who is not choosing scientific principles for effective living, and academic courses designed for the student who will pursue a scientific career, as well as the student who will pursue an academic career other than scientific. All students are required to take Life Science I to satisfy the state law requiring alcohol and narcotic education and to give them some insight into the biological sciences including the functions of their own bodies. After taking Life Science l, non-academic students take Life Science ll or Modern Science l 8. ll. The student who prefers to study the biological sciences probably will choose Physiology in the Senior year. Physiology l consists largely of human anatomy, while Physiology ll applies the knowledge gained in the first semester by a study of bodily functions. Chemistry and Physics are upper division aca- demic college preparatory courses, and the student entering either should be prepared to spend a con- siderable amount of time and effort to master them.
