Students who are interested in figures and dimensions may take plane geometry, solid geome try, or a combined course. This year School Mathematics Study Group geometry has been added to the curriculum The SMSG course uses a more modern and mathematical ly sound approach to the traditional concepts of geometry One of the higher math courses is trigonometry, the study of relations of the sides and angles of triangles Senior math, an honors course, includes trigonometry and an introduction to higher math topics. Through this program students have become more familiar with the different branches of mathematics. Department Offers Curriculum Including MILDRED E. FORTUNE MARLIN BROWN Albright College, B.S.
