NEW I.ABS With Federal aid to the tunc of over $30,000. our science labs have been brought up to date, and as a result, students studying chemistry, biology and physics have more elbow room, greater facility in performing experiments, and more equipment with which to work. For terminal students—that is. those students who do not go to college—usually a one-year science course directly related to their trades is required. A printing student, for instance, would probably study the chemistry of ink, paper, presswork, and photography. A three-year course (biology, chemistry, physics) is required for Pre-nursing students.
