SOCIAL STUDIES The Social Studies department includes American History, World History, Geogra- phy, and Problems of American Democracy. The objective of this department is to de- velop traits of citizenship, help the student to know and understand his country, and develop an awareness of the social and economic problems of the world. National government is studied in American History and world government is studied in Worlcl History. With the developments in communication and transportation during recent years, the world is becoming even smaller. People must learn to live together. The leaders of tomorrow, the students of today, are being molded by their understanding developed in Social Studies.
