Science The math and science departments were very busy this year as there were many new teaching techniques and experiments conducted. The algebra and geometry classes learned the age old theorms and postulets so they might progress to a higher class. In biology, experiments were tried with white mice concerning genetics, One of the highlights of the year in chemistry was the making of beer. ln psychology students learned to better understand themselves and their environment due to their studies All in all it was a very progressive year for these two departments.
