English, History In order to become proficient in writing, freshmen learned to cope with weekly themes and the inevitable research paper. After exploring the literature of England, majors in the field concentrated their efforts in Chaucer, Milton, Shakespeare, seventeenth century authors, and American literature. For all students the Junior English Proficiency Examination posed problems of creativity and grammar knowledge in an essay on current events. From Caesar Augustus through the French Revolution to the Viet Nam War, students of Western Civilization explored the development of the social, political, and religious world. Survey courses of the histories of En- gland, Russia, France, and the United States laid the foundation for further study of nineteenth and twentieth century events. Selected freshmen enrolled in the Heri- tage Program designed to combine history, literature, religion, and philosophy of mankind. They were selected on the basis of their ACT scores and high school record. The program included daily classes, weekly seminars, films, speakers, and cultural entertainment. MRS. MADELEINE M.
