Communication Skills 13

Page 16 text:

Our language department con- sists of English, speech, college composition, Latin, and French. Because a sound background is important, English is a re- quired course for three years. Speech is offered to those students who desire to develop self-confidence and speaking ability through actual experience. College composition is de- signed to give college-bound stu- dents practice in the communi- cation skills through the use of creative writing. Through an intense study of foreign languages, the student learns to speak the language fluently and is made aware of the many English words that are de- rived from both the Latin and French words.

Exploring Civilization People influence their environ- ment. Through the study of social subjects, students can see the cycles of social change. Through world and American his- tory, the students develop an under- standing of the ancient civilizations and study through modern times. American government furnishes practical information of the workings of the political world and the struc- ture of the American government. Geography is a specialized course in the field of learning about weather, minerals and resources. Sociology helps students to understand how people think and live.
