BEHR Chemistry Student Council Sunshine Committee Medical Careers Club Is it soup yet? Neil Avison, Mr. S. Schepps, and Steve Spritzer set up an experiment on calorimetry in the Chem Lab. Technology and society can and must cooperate. Realiza¬ tion of this existence is the overall challenge to today ' s world of science. Here in school the chairman of the Science De¬ partment, Mr. G. Castner, is working diligently to relate present day problems with the research and studying done in the classroom. Laboratory courses are offered to the students each year. Beginning in the tenth grade, biology not only covers the study of life processes of living organisms, but also their function in the micro-ecology of the natural world. Chemistry, the following course, is a laboratory experience with the principal theories of matter and the elements, studied in depth with a written report based on experiments performed in the lab. Completing the science curriculum is physics which in¬ volves the study of the natural laws of the universe. Natural phenomena such as matter, time, space, light, motion, and electrical energy are studied. No matter what the student ' s abilities are, the science department tries to accommodate him by offering a physical science course, physics, and advanced physics. Various students retain different amounts of scientific knowledge, but surely no one will forget the experience of dissecting in biology, making the first semi-dangerous solu¬ tion in chem lab, or watching one ' s own lab experiment in physics. 26
