the Individuals chemistry — the science of the composition of substances and the changes they undergo — Webster “Majors usually do some kind of research work here at a graduate level.” — Dr. Smart “I like lab work, and our labs are better than those at any other school I’ve seen.” — Linda Kojitjy “The department is on the approved list of the American Chemical Society.” — Dr. Mortimer. “What will I do when I graduate? Write chemistry books!” — Dan Verdonik “I’m interested in medical school, and chem seemed like the most practical major in case I change my mind.” — Tom Grau “Although the courses were good, the attitude of the professors and the department was too oriented to professional schools rather than careers out of college.” — anonymous senior major “I like the nat sci major because it is so flexible. You can select your area of specialty and take more of what you want. The drawback is the intense level of competition that exists between many of the students in these courses.” — Cindy Peters “I like ions.” — anonymous major Careful calculations require hours of tab work, as freshman Allison Hill learns in Gen Chem. Left: A little bio, a little chem, and here a little biochem fills the schedules of nat sci majors, Rick Wedemeyer and Karen Oerter. Getting down to work is freshman Michell Arnone. Right: A sneak attack by ROTCie Jill Guidroz catches Dr. Weston by surprise. CHEMISTRY — First Row: Mrs. Elizabeth Bonanni, Dr. Richard Hatch. Sec- ond Row: Dr. Charles Mortimer, Dr. Richard Rauner.

But more all- nighters are spent on lab book write-ups ...” — Stephanie Anderson, major “Physics is phun.” — Cheryl Hawk “Atomic and Nuclear Physics with Dr. Raub was an excellent course. It was up to date and related to things like chemistry and philosophy. — Fred Glatter “What’s a slide rule?’’ — Larry Liss, major “Life is not a plug in.” — Dr. Milligan, in class “Physics majors don ' t carry calculators on their belts.” — anony- mous major In search of perfect lab results are Betsy Poggemeier and Dave Majerich. Below: Visual aids are essential to physics classes. Here Dr. Boyer goes for a spin. |r, o. ' c ‘ ' vEgji ■ flM PHYSICS CLUB — First Row: G. Bogart, S. Anderson, J. Cowan, G. Halko. Second Row: L.

biology — the science of plant and animal life — Webster “The biology department? We ' re number one!” — Dr. Vaughan “The professors are excellent. My only complaint is having to sign up for Electron Scope freshman year.” — Dan Goon, major “I feel well prepared for dental school because they pushed us. — Lisa Ravetz, major “Xylem on the inside, phloem an the outside, won’t you sing along with me?” — Dr. Schaeffer “The lab facilities are generally good. Majors are required to take a lot of courses (like Gen Chem, Calc, and Physics) that don’t count toward our maior credits.” — Lynn Fisher, major “If I’m not in my room, I’m in the bio building.” — anonymous major “Check it out.” — Dr. Oplinger BOTANY CLUB — First Row: I.
