Math, Science Departments Train Precise Ideas Since mathematics is the language ot all sciences. both the math and the science departments correlate their courses. Basic mathematics, such as advanced general math. Algebra l and ll, and geometry lay a firm foundation tor the more abstract sub- iects-trigonometry and elementary analy- sis. senior math analysis, and calculus-the tools ot the science wing. Burning sulphur and formaldehyde-the odoriterous ettects ot scientific tormulas- permeate the halls annually. The neophyte courses, biology'and physical science. ac- climate the potential scientist tor such com- plex subiects as chemistry. advanced biol- ogy, and physics. Controlled experimen- tation in a laboratory situation makes con- crete the abstract learned in mathematics. The Science Fair provides an opportunity to display original depth studies.
