Library aides serve the school daily by checking books and helping students locate specific volumes. Anne Cropp, Georgie Smith, and Jackie Williams process books while Chris Taylor gets extra supplies. The library supplies the students with books, maga- zines, and various research materials. Also available are movies, filmstrips, and records which serve both faculty and students in all phases of the instructional program. The librarians, with the help of twenty-three library aides, keep the library running smoothly and instruct the students in the use of its facilities. This is a place for study, relaxation, and the development of an ap- preciation of literature. Marjorie L. Dearhart B.A., William and Mary Tressie V. Myers. B.A., Bridgew ater Col. IDS Moy EN.

English In the freshman year literature is organized according to themes and in the sophomore year according to types. Junior students may choose courses emphasizing business English, creative writing, journalism, or modern litera- ture instead of the regular course of American literature. English literature is studied in the senior year. Juniors and seniors may study speech as an elective. A new class in the humanities introduces students to the best in philosophy, art, and music of the past and present. Elizabeth L. Atkins B.A., Women’s Col. of U. of N. C.
