HOW ABOUT THAT- George Hale, biology instructor, and student Robert Bold study microscopic matter that the latter will be tested on later. An active field work program high- lights the semester of students en- rolled in one of the biological science courses. In addition to a wide cover- age of biology and its many aspects, the department offers a lab attendant program which pays outstanding stu- dents to work in the labs and perform duties from classroom teaching to test tube cleaning. A field trip program features trips to plant nurseries, expeditions into the Santa Monica Mountains and weekend excursions into the High Sierras. An additionally active program of occu- pational guidance is provided for stu- dents who may go on into State fish and game, forestry or other biological professions. Some students from Biol- ogy i3 have made extensive trips into Mexico and Arizona. A seminar series, which brings outstanding professionals in the biological field to Valley Col- lege and a thorough oudio-visual pro- gram, enhance the department's ef- fectiveness.
