MU ALPHA THETA Purchases Books for the Mathematics Department The members of Mu Alpha Theta, the na- tional math honorary society, are characterized by their towering interest in mathematics. Led by the officers, President Mark Wigder, Vice President Jon Shamres, Secretary Sue Leven- thal, and Treasurer David Shalloway, Mu Alpha Theta seeks to recognize students Who have shown superior achievement in the field of ball real numbers? The various projects Which the club under- took this year were of beneht to the whole stu- dent body. Members exchanged their knowl- edge With other students during study sessions held in preparation for the National Math Test. Math students now beneflt from the efforts of Mu Alpha Theta through the growing library of math books purchased by the club for the . ,, t 5 Mathematics Department.

SPANISH HONOR Creates Global Friendships by Exchanging Cultures One of the newest clubs, the Spanish Honor Society, has taken its place among the various honor clubs of the school. Students who were participating in third or fourth year Spanish and maintaining a 3.6 average in the language were eligible for membership. The club, under the advisorship of Mr. Stultz, strived for the creation of friendship between American stu- dents and those of Latin America. This became possible through correspondence With the Latin Americans in their native countries and through the congenial relationships with the Latin Americans in the Miami Area. thcers Davida Salles, President; Bruce Saskin, Vice President; Joyce Caplan, Secre- tary; and Jeff Breslaw, Treasurer; led the plan- ning of various activities for the year. With the funds from beat tag sales and bake sales, the club financed culture studies with feature guests, as well as films and cultural exhibits.
