Students Acquire Tastes and Talents in Art Classes Basic art courses, introducing many phases of art, are offered at North Side. Students with a serious interest in this subject find specific courses available in crafts, letter- ing and poster design, life drawing, graphics and paint- ing. The appreciation courses teach Redskins to use art in their daily lives through such things as color co- ordination and interior decoration. Adequate facilities and equipment increase the bene- fits students derive from North Side ' s Art Department. Two large art rooms and a craft room are equipped with a graphics press, potter ' s wheel and kiln. This year a motor for polishing jewelry was purchased for use in Art 6, ad- vanced crafts. Whether a student is interested in art as a vocation or avocation, the Art Department provides opportunity for exploration into this subject. The courses, equipment and teachers all help to direct this exploration towards instilling creativity and awareness into Redskin art students. 23

The public library also became a familiar haunt as deadlines for term papers, short stories and special projects drew near. In spite of study halls and libraries some homework inevitably ended up being done at home. There the avail- ability of a radio, the telephone, or a snack was both a help and a hinderance to studious Redskins. Study habits and places differed with the student; but in one way or another, Redskins studied.
