VOCATIONAL SCIENCE These subjects are related in that they prepare stu- dents for some type of vocation. The objectives of COMMERCE are: to develop at- titudes, work habits, characteristic traits, and behavior patterns that are necessary for success in the business world. The major purpose of HOME ECONOMICS education is to improve home and family living. The home is the basic unit of society and with the complexity of problems facing today's families the need for education in Home Economics is increasingly important. INDUSTRIAL ARTS is a department designed to provide students experience in arears of leather, plas- tics, woodworking, and also in the use and care of hand and pow'er tools in constructing useful projects. VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE teaches a student farm mechanics skills, the business of farming, the basic principles of leadership, and all the opportunities in Agriculture and its related occupations. MRS.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION Mrs. Jackson says Physical Education makes unique contributions to the total edu- cation of all students. There is fun, chal- lenge, and adventure in physical movement for both youth and adults. MR. LeROY DREIER Typing, football KSTC - 1961 MRS. PAT JACKSON Girls Phy. Ed. K-State - 1942 KSTC - 1966 There is no classroom long term unit of health taught in this program. We do have films, reports and discus- sions about applied health information. We are vitally concerned with applying health habits of cleanliness, weight awareness, and physical appearance. The import- ance of understanding the effects of alcohol, smoking, and others are stressed. Safety factors are a part of each unit. ROBERT O'ROURKE Biology Bethany - 1953 Stephen Austin - 1962 MR. REX WILSON Math, Track Fort Hays - 1960 MR. RICHARD UNRUH Physics, Chemistry Tabor - 1965 SCIENCES Mr. Unruh tells us the physical sci- ences deal with non-living things. It is my main objective to allow students to discover for themselves a refined method of gather- ing facts about these things through labora- tory experiments. In this way the student learns how a scientist works and the methods he uses. It is my desire to stimulate curiosity, questions, and to allow a search for an- ... . swers by discovery and not simply by a memorization of facts. Only by encouraging’ critical and creative thinking can a student actually sense the way of a scientist and become an active participant in today's scientific age. In MATHEMATICS al- though the answers to specific problems are sought, attention is focused on the examina- tion and study of processes and functional relation- ships. 9
