In order to fulfill the needs and abilities of all students, new courses are presently being de- veloped for placement in the 1973 school schedule. Specifically, on the Senior level, the English Department is considering such courses as Exploring the Film, Search for Self, Public Opinion and Propaganda, and Independent Study.
