It is the study of how they live and what they do: their past, present and future. The goal of the Social Studies Department, headed by Miss Martha Taylor, is to help students understand themselves and the society in which they live. “Regardless of what you may think, says Mr. DeSantis, “a mental reservation is not a place where you keep crazy Indians.” W.

Mr. Badgley explains the use of a mat to future journalists. BRUCE T. BADGLEY B.S., Seton Hall University English, Journalism Trumpet DRAMA JOURNALISM The basic aim of the Drama course, taught by Mr. Lawrence Kassab, is to provide the student with a thorough background in the dramatic arts. This is accomplished by studying both classical and modern theater. In addition to theoretical study, students apply what they have learned by performing skits and monologues in the classroom. Journalism, taught by Mr. Bruce Badgley, is designed to introduce and familiarize students with the composition of a newspaper and the techniques used in modem journalism. Students practice writing varied types of newspaper articles and study the history of American journalism, typography and advertising. By the end of the course, the students know how a newspaper works and is produced. Nick Gettis and Arna Levine demonstrate a scene from Othello. 23
