Promoting better understanding of science among students and faculty is the purpose of Northwood's Science Club. In line with this objective, club mem- bers meet to view films and discuss scientific ad- vancement with prominent men in various fields. An annual project of the club is the sponsoring of a science fair designed to encourage outstanding stu- dents to engage in research. New to Northwood this year, the Medical Careers Club has turned the goals of many students toward the fields of medicine. Their field trip to nearby Holy Cross Hospital and the benefits of many speakers have lent interest and enthusiasm to a year spent primarily in organization. The Medical Careers Club looks forward to bigger things in future years.
