It involves the fun of discovery and the satisfaction of accomplishment. No one forgets the first time he dissected a frog in biology or the experiments cautiously attempted in the chemistry lab. Then, there were the bold, adventurous students who flippantly signed up for physics and were suddenly swamped in floods of theories and principles. Studying nature helps o student relate himself to the world and others around him. It provides experiences valuable to the meaning and wonders of life.
