— — WWJ English Electives Foster Creativity No educational system may be consid- ered complete unless it teaches students to think for themselves. An independent, creative mind has been proven to be an in- valuable asset to students preparing for col- lege, the business and professional world, or life in general. MUS nurtured originality in thought and writing through the Eng- lish electives. Electives offered to upper-school stu- dents included courses such as Man ' s Search for Himself, in which students ex- amined the hero and anti-hero in American and English literature under the tutelage of Mr. Haguewood, and Shake- speare, an entrance into the world of the greatest playwright of all time, presided over by Mr. Hatchett. In his Modern Liter- ary Criticism course, Mr. Boelte introduced his students to the art of criticizing short stories and novels of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Also popular were Mr. Russell ' s Utopia and Satire, an in-depth study of man ' s search for Utopia through literature, and Mr. Elder ' s Man and God in Modern Literature, a study of the effect of theological-philosophical trends on modern authors. By encouraging original thought and writing, MUS implanted the seed of cre- ativity in the minds of the students. Hope- fully, with continued nourishment, the seed will blossom forth as the student takes his place in society. 23
